I have updated the documentation for 6.2 by including a reference to MAXOVERLAPANGLE in the description of ANGLE FOLLOW.

Hi, For same kind of need (i.e hydrologic line to label), i've found that: - Your lines must be long enough to allow the label to fit on (seems already your case, as it works for you without ANGLE FOLLOW) - You have to increase MAXOVERLAPANGLE property - Your lines have to be as smooth as possible Below a sample of such a thing with two layers, one with the data itself and one another using a generalization trought PostGIS ST_Simplify to help the geometry to be smoother enough LAYER NAME "label" METADATA "ows_title" "Label des cours d'eau Carthage AERMC" "ows_extent" "573401 6050407 1242369 6811885" "ows_featureid" "gid" END PROJECTION "init=epsg:2154" END TYPE line STATUS on DATA "geom from (SELECT gid, ST_simplify(geom, 200) As geom , toponyme, classe::integer FROM aermc.cours_eau WHERE toponyme IS NOT NULL) AS foo using unique gid using srid=2154" CONNECTIONTYPE postgis CONNECTION "host=XXXX port=5432 dbname=XXXX user=XXXX" LABELITEM toponyme CLASSITEM classe CLASS EXPRESSION ([classe] <= 2) LABEL COLOR 0 0 0 OUTLINECOLOR 210 210 210 TYPE TRUETYPE FONT vera SIZE 10 ANTIALIAS TRUE POSITION UC ANGLE FOLLOW PARTIALS FALSE MINFEATURESIZE auto REPEATDISTANCE 500 MAXOVERLAPANGLE 45 END END CLASS EXPRESSION ([classe] <= 4) LABEL COLOR 30 30 30 OUTLINECOLOR 210 210 210 TYPE TRUETYPE FONT vera SIZE 8 ANTIALIAS TRUE POSITION UC ANGLE FOLLOW PARTIALS FALSE MINFEATURESIZE auto MAXOVERLAPANGLE 40 END END CLASS LABEL COLOR 60 60 60 OUTLINECOLOR 210 210 210 TYPE TRUETYPE FONT vera SIZE 8 ANTIALIAS TRUE POSITION UC ANGLE FOLLOW PARTIALS FALSE MINFEATURESIZE auto MAXOVERLAPANGLE 40 END END END LAYER NAME "cours_eau" METADATA "ows_title" "Cours d'eau Carthage" "ows_extent" "573401 6050407 1242369 6811885" "ows_featureid" "gid" END PROJECTION "init=epsg:2154" END TYPE line STATUS on DATA "geom from (SELECT gid, geom , classe::integer FROM aermc.cours_eau WHERE toponyme IS NOT NULL) AS foo using unique gid using srid=2154" CONNECTIONTYPE postgis CONNECTION "host=XXXX port=5432 dbname=XXXX user=XXXX" CLASSITEM classe CLASS EXPRESSION ([classe] <= 2) STYLE COLOR 33 33 210 WIDTH 5 END END CLASS EXPRESSION ([classe] <= 4) STYLE COLOR 66 66 210 WIDTH 3 END END CLASS STYLE COLOR 99 99 210 WIDTH 1 END END END HTH, -- Olivier
