RE: [mapguide-users] Re: Strange behaviour with labels in Mapguide. Help needed.
I find that really odd. Could you convert the SDF to SHP using Fdo2Fdo and see what happens? I'm curious if you can remove the Has Elevation. I can't believe that only the Has Elevation would cause this, but anything is possible.

Help needed. Thanks for the continued help Dave, I have compared the 2 xml files and there were a couple of small differences so I amended the sdf file to be the same as the dwg to be the same (apart from name and geometry) but it still gives me the same problem. The only thing that is different now is the geometry - could this be causing the problem?

Have you compared the layer definition.xml to see if there are any odd differences?

RE: [mapguide-users] Re: Strange behaviour with labels in Mapguide. Help needed.
The default behavior for polygon labels is to be generated with regards to the centroid of the visible portion of the polygon. Your labels aren't doing this?
