Hi, At the qgis-user list someone has asked on how to create road-shield labels.
I came across http://linfiniti.com/2011/08/shield-labels-for-qgis/ but in current master I can't find a way to define a background shape or background color (rectangular and not buffer). Did this never make it into master? I think that we should offer a way to create road shields in QGIS. Another option would be to user marker lines and allow SVG markers to dynamically replace text in an SVG shield for more complex US-style road shields ... Any ideas on how to accomplish this? Other blog posts on the topic: http://underdark.wordpress.com/2011/10/10/interstate-shield-styles-in-qgis/ - but without the dynamic SVG parameter style text replacement the road nr is sort of hard-coded ...
