[mapserver-users] Force label rendering without overlapping

[aborruso]

Hi all,
I would like to render all the label of a polygon. I know that the only
solution I have for my geometries is to use LEADER.

But I have some problems. If I do not set FORCE TRUE, the labels overlap
each other and I have no LEADER line. In the below image two results I have
with Mapserver, and a sketch of my goal.

Is there a way to have a greater number of labels and leader lines?

Below my layer setting.

I'm using MapServer version 6.4.1 with GDAL 1.10.1, released 2013/08/26.

Thank you very much,

Andrea
