[mapserver-users] mapserver 5.6beta1: mindistance notworkingproperly?

[Steve Lime]

Michael, can you describe the effect you're seeing? The change Alan refers to
should cause you to see fewer labels but your original message leads me to
believe that's not the case. If you remove that option with the 5.6 beta does
the map look different?

In fact, that ticket changed the label distance calculation. Before, only the 
distance between label1 point and label2 point was calculated. Now, the label 
size is taken into account for the distance calculation. So, we are now sure 
that there is really the "mindistance" value between our labels. 

Thanks,
Alan
