Hi, i do exactly the same to get the labels positioned. Otherwise the labels would hide the symbols for my point features. I would also like this patch, but I'm not sure, if it is compatible with SLD. Arnd

I have a vector feature which is a point having an externalGraphic and what I really would like to do is to specify an offset the label should have relative to the feature centroid. I checked the drawText method in the Renderers (VML and SVG) and they determine the position of the label by the feature centroid. But dont let the user specify a custom offset. Has anyone thought about this? A simple patch on the drawText method would do this: var x = (location.x / resolution + this.left + style.labelOffsetX); var y = (location.y / resolution - this.top - style.labelOffsetY); Am I right?
