[mapserver-users] LABELS - changing from single map to tiles and overlays - HOW?

[Worth Lutz]

Hi all,

 

I'm changing my usage of mapserver from a single map image to using
OpenLayers and having MapServer work as a WMS server.

 

My problem is labels. There seem to be too many variables (in MapServer and
OpenLayers) and I cannot figure out which to set to keep from having partial
labels, too many labels or overlapping labels.

 

What is the best way to approach labels in a tiled / overlay environment.

 

I noticed that in MapServer 6.0 the "annotation" layer type is deprecated.
What is the method for replacing this?

 

In summary, I'm LOST.  Anyone with a map, please point me in the right
direction. :-)

 

Thanks,

Worth
