Hi,

ANGLE FOLLOW is subject to MAXOVERLAPANGLE (see http://mapserver.org/mapfile/label.html). If there is an angle between letters that is larger than 22.5 (if you don't have a manually-set value), then the label will not be drawn.

I wrote a blog post that may help you understand: http://research.dmsolutions.ca/2011/new-and-exciting-in-mapserver-6-0/

Good idea. But even changing to "BUFFER 0" didn't change anything ...

Problem is still there.

Re: [mapserver-users] Problem with "ANGLE FOLLOW"


Try lowering the BUFFER number? If each label has a big buffer, then
less labels can fit...

Hi

I'm using  ANGLE-FOLLOW in Mapserver 6.2 to label lines.
Unfortunately only 5 of 12 features are labeld.

I attach an example with data and mapfile. It can be used with
    shp2img -m example.map -o out.png
All features are drawn, but most of them are not labeld, although there
should be enough space for all labels.

(To activate this example, one has to add arialbd.ttf in the
test-directory. I didn't attach this one, because of size-limits
in this mailing-list...)

Without "ANGLE FOLLOW" all labels are drawn.
