Can you give a bit more detail about what "maps units" are in this case? Do you mean x,y describe a label coordinate off of a polygon in the same coordinates as the polygon, but in two different fields named 'x' and 'y'? Or are these displacements from the center of the polygon? - Dane _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
