It's been some time since I wrote that tutorial and it's probably a bit out
of date (I usually try to keep the docs in sync with the code but sometimes
things do slip through the cracks.) I am pretty sure that I implemented
anchors and offsets for labels some time ago[1], but the tutorial and the
property listing[2] don't seem to reflect that. If you'd do a bit of user
testing and verify they're hooked up, that'd be great, and patches to the
documentation are always welcome as well ;)
