[Qgis-user] QGIS 2.18 Point labeling with connecting line

[Phil (The Geek) Wyatt]

I have certainly done something similar using the easy labelling plug in. It
really depends on how much you want to control the line lengths etc. Not all
points will have the diagonal line (unless you move the label independently)

Subject: [Qgis-user] QGIS 2.18 Point labeling with connecting line

 

Hi all,

 

happy to be back here on this mailing list after being away for quite a
while.

 

A lot has changed in QGIS since I last used it, and I am happy to see that
QGIS' community still is growing and the software has improved hugely. 

 

Thank you all very much for keeping the community active!

 

Let's get to the question:

 

I am currently creating a new map, containing loads of points that need to
be labled. No problem so far, but I want to achieve a very specific labeling
style, as shown in the following picture:

 



The only thing I have yet to do, is the connecting line between Point and
label. Field based labelling, of course, is no problem. I have read about a
couple of plugins, but none of them got me there. Any ideads - the
horizontal separator between the two lines is actually not really neccesary,
but nice to have. Main thing is the diagonal line connecting the feature
with the label.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Cheers

Freddy
