Hello list I want to vary the size of my labels on features both by attribute and map scale. So, for example, I have a layer of towns and villages and I want towns labelled with a font size of 20 and villages with a font size of 10. I can do this with in the label size expression builder:
CASE WHEN "type" = 'town' THEN 20 ELSE 10 END Now, how can I vary the label size with scale? When the scale is smaller than 1:100000 then towns must be size 15 and villages size 8. I thought something like this would work: (CASE WHEN "type" = 'town' AND $scale < 100000 THEN 20 ELSE 10 END) OR (CASE WHEN "type" = 'town' AND $scale > 100000 THEN 15 ELSE 8 END) I tried with the $scale function under Record category but then the labels disappeared. Any suggestions? I am using QGIS 2.0.1-3 on Windows 7.
