[mapserver-users] Label polygons outside [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

[Inna Nogeste]

I need to position the polygon label outside the polygon.
Do I have to use OFFSET for this or is there another parameter I can use?

Is there a way to label polygons so that they don’t collide with an overlaying/underlaying point symbol which is positioned in the centre of the polygon?
