Six days ago we upgraded mapserver to version 4.10.2 and we are experiencing
some problems with short labels using the ANGLE FOLLOW new feature. The odd behaviour
is exactly the same reported in the ticket #2020 in the mapserver bug list.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> Our problem is that
the work around listed there is not working for us. I created the function in
postgres with the current user that is running the mapserver application, but
nothing changed.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
