Re: [R-sig-Geo] Help on pointLabel() function for engineering drawings

Oscar, I did as you suggested by putting “” for labels that I didn’t want. However, the labels still overlap the drawing :( Here is my code: library(dplyr)library(maptools)#Known Size of Sheet xmin <- -357.7 xmax <- 19.3 ymin <- -90.2 ymax <- 159.7 #Read in the data linescoords <-

Hello, I am trying to solve automatic label placement problem for an engineering drawing using the Simulated Annealing algorithm. I came across the pointLabel() function in the
