Ok, at least now they are in the right spot.

GEOMTRANSFORM doesn’t seem to work on Lines . . . so . . .

I added a layer just for the Label point from the original line segments in 
Postgres . . .

        LAYER
NAME 'Parcels-Query-Edges-Label'
STATUS ON
TYPE POINT

METADATA
"ows_title" "Parcels-Query-Edges-Label"
"gml_include_items" "all"
END

CONNECTIONTYPE PostGIS
CONNECTION “host=localhost dbname=postgres user=mapserv password=***”
DATA "geom from (
select
ST_Centroid(geom) geom,
round(length::numeric,2) round_el,
segid, parcelid, length from assessment.rc_parcel_segments_no_overlaps
WHERE parcelid = '%pin%'
OR parcelid = '%qstring%'
) as subquery using unique segid srid=200068"

PROJECTION
"init=epsg:200068"
END

CLASSITEM "parcelid"
LABELITEM "round_el"

LABELCACHE on

VALIDATION
'pin' '^[0-9]{12}$'
'qstring' '^[0-9]{12}$'
END

CLASS
LABEL

COLOR  0 255 0
OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255
FONT "arial-bold"
TYPE truetype
SIZE 12
ANGLE auto

END
END # CLASS
TEMPLATE 'TEMPLATES/empty.html'
END # LAYER

Steve,

Doesn’t look like there is a LABEL option avaiable for GEOMTRANSFORM.  All 
needs to be inside of the STYLE block.  I tried wrapping it in a STYLE block 
inside of the Label, and got back:

<ServiceException>
msDrawLabelCAche(): General error message. Labels only support LABELPNT and 
LABELPOLY GEOMTRANSFORMS
</ServiceException>

I also tried “center” and “centroid” as parameters. . . .

All,
I’m working on a Parcel Assessment app that will display Parcel edges and which 
streets they abut.  I’m trying to label each edge of the parcel with it’s Edge 
length, but the positioning of the labels is not at all what I’m expecting in 
the output. Here is a sample image:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ppp1cihnl4flycf/rc_parcels_assessment.02.png?dl=0
The blue lines represent a connection from the center of each of the parcel 
edge segments being assigned, to the approriate Street/Alley centerline (not 
shown).  I can’t seem to get the labels to center them selves on the segments.  
There should be one distance label centered on each segment at the start of 
each of the blue lines where they intersect the red parcel edges.
My next workaround would be to use a centroid of the line as the label point.  
I think I’ve tried all available combinations of settings in the Mapfile, but 
maybe I missed something.
Anyone have any ideas?

In the LABEL use a geotransform "center" to create the label point, but this 
has the problem that you have a point so you have to precompute the ANGLE 
[angle] in the SQL and make that available to align the label with the edge.

Here is the Label layer for the Parcel edges:
LAYER

"ows_title" "Parcels-Query-Edges"
