Hi Steve, Hi Alan, exactly, that was the change I also noted in trac. When I realized the effect, I reverted the last condition in maplabel.c. line 515, to its previous state, only comparing the distance of the points with mindistance. With the expected results, that I even got some more labels. So basically the change is working, but I see a lot more labels than with 54.
Here are three screenshots of the effect: - http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/7871/mindistlabelsms54.png - http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/1130/mindistlabelsms56.png - http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/5196/mindistlabelsms56wolabe.png (MS56 without taking the labelsize into account) The maps are based on the osm data example, and as you can see it renders flawlessly with mapserver 54. Maybe someone who also uses this example can have a try with mapserv56 and see if it is the same. The mindistance used is 150 px. The calls to images were getMap requests.
