And if that fixes it, make the symbol 1 pixel and transparent so that it is not 
visible. J

Subject: Re: [mapguide-users] Overlapping labels for points

Hmm. Maybe something to try would be turning on symbols....to see if it's a bug 
that only occurs when you've got no symbols showing, but do have labels.

Assuming that Studio is reporting correctly, "Labels are fixed (not dynamic)" 
and "Allow other labels to obscure feature symbols on this layer" are not 
checked.  In the XML files AllowOverpost is false.  I'm not certain, but I 
believe the problem only happens when there are no symbols being displayed with 
the labels (i.e. I have it set so that when at large scales, there are no 
symbols drawn, just the city name labels).

Am I right in saying that your layers labels are not 'dynamic'? In MG Studio, 
in the same area that you edit your label settings, you can specify some 
additional settings....If you set them to be dynamic, they shouldn't overlap - 
but that will cause some to not show up, until you zoom in.

Hello all,

I've been working with MapGuide OS for some time now and I've noticed a problem 
with labels for points overlapping.  I have attached an image with an example 
of the problem I'm having.  The Layers were created with MG Studio, and I'm 
using MGOS 1.2.

While the attached image shows labels from several layers (same SDF feature 
source, different attribute filters), I have confirmed that the problem also 
happens with labels in the same layer.  Has anyone seen this before?  Is there 
a solution?

Thanks,
Christy
