I am using mapnik stable and am experiencing a strange bug with shield symbolizers. I wonder if this is already known, and if others experienced the same issue.
Sometimes (actually rarely) the label-text of a shield label is moved outside the actual shield. This happens only rarely and the same rules create mostly valid shields. I am rendering single (test)-tiles with generate_tiles and set the buffer to 350 pixels (tile size is 256), maybe this is connected? See an example here (in the lower right corner is the empty shield, the text is left from it in the center): http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/3912/759e.png Another issue you find as well in the standard OSM-Mapnik rendering is that the text is not always vertically centered (sometimes it tends to move slightly down, sometimes it fits perfectly, in the same rendering), e.g. see here: http://b.tile.openstreetmap.org/11/1102/763.png http://c.tile.openstreetmap.org/11/1104/761.png cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
