Hello,

is there any hope that mapserver will in the future support curved
labels with MINFEATURESIZE AUTO settings?
Would be nice to display street labels displayed only when they have
enough space in the line segment...

Raivo,

We hit your same problem while testing for the FOSS4G2009 benchmarking exercise[1]. The change has been added[2] (curved labels with the minfeaturesize auto setting) and will be available in the next beta release.

For those that are saying "what the heck does MINFEATURESIZE AUTO do?", like me recently, it will only show labels that are larger than the feature. You can see it in action with the benchmarking roads layer[3]
