[mapserver-users] connect label to features

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Luca,

I was able to get leader lines with your data by just commented out your 
MINDISTANCE parameter in your LABEL.  Here is the resulting map image:

Hope that helps.

(please also never attach zip, images, or files, on a mailing list, 
instead just upload your zip or image somewhere, and point to it here 
instead)

Have a nice weekend,

-jeff
