[mapserver-users] LABEL_NO_CLIP

[Stephen Woodbridge]

If you are using mapcache then the label should get drawn once per 
metatile. So in a scene you might have the label more than once but not 
in every tile.

When you are rendering tiles mapserver has no knowledge of what was 
drawn in other requests or even if there were other request. so what you 
are asking for is not possible. The best you can hope for is a strategy 
like the LABEL_NO_CLIP=true or using something like mapcache and 
metatiles. The other option is to draw the whole image as a single tile 
rather than tiling the image.
