[mapserver-users] duplicate labels

[Andy Colson]

Hi All,

Here is a screen shot:

There are, as far as I can tell, 4 lines.  The label is duplicating and 
I dont want it too.  Here is the layer from the mapfile:


        LAYER
                NAME annotate_pin
                TYPE line
                STATUS on
                CLASS
                        NAME "HIGHLIGHT"
                        STYLE
                                COLOR 0 255 0
                                OUTLINECOLOR 0 255 0
                                WIDTH 3
                        END
                        LABEL
                                TYPE truetype
                                FONT "Vera"
                                SIZE 10
                                COLOR 0 0 0
                                ANGLE follow
                                POSITION auto
                                BACKGROUNDCOLOR 255 255 255
                                MINDISTANCE 900
                        END
                END
        END


I have played with MINDISTANCE from 0 to 99,000 and it does not seem to 
make a difference.  I googled a little but have not found a useful answer.

I am adding features to this layer in perl mapscript using something like:

        my $shape = new mapscript::shapeObj($mapscript::MS_SHAPE_LINE);
        $shape->add($line);
        $shape->{text} = sprintf('%.2f', $p1->distanceToPoint($p2));
        $shape->setBounds();
        $newlayer->addFeature($shape);


Any hints would be appreciated,

-Andy
