Jay, the spaces in your TEXT expression are preserved, try removing them.

Yup, but the text goes outside the column references, e.g. Land Value: 
[EMV_LAND_].

[mapserver-users] RE: Labeling issue mutli lines and precision

2009-03-26 Thread Jay Kapalczynski
This works . BUT???



For some reason the 2nd and 3rd line seem indented a bit



Result:

1982

  19961001

  $ 250854



Do you know what could be causing this indent?



This is my Code:



   LAYER # Maple Grove Parcels

   NAME Parcel_Labels

   DATA './parcels.shp'

   STATUS DEFAULT

   TYPE annotation

   MAXSCALE 2000

   MINSCALE 100



  LABELCACHE ON



  CLASS

 TEXT ([YEAR_BUI_1] * [SALE_DATE] * [SALE_VAL_1])  
#label

   LABEL

  COLOR 0 0 0

  OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 128

  WRAP "*" #select character to wrap on

   END #label

  END #class

END # Maple Grove Parcels







PRECISION:

As for the Precision I have also done that on the query resultsdont really 
know if or how I can use that in the Labelingfor now I just converted the 
test data.  But in a real world setting I am not going to be able to do that.  
I will be reading live...

If I have to I can created another database that has links and convert it 
therebut would rather bypass all that additional work...



THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED

THANKS MARK

In response to Jay's Labeling question:





I have multi line / field labels working:



In this example I am stringing together both the name and the parcel id as a

label, then splitting the label into two lines



CLASS

  NAME 'Parcels'

  TEXT ([TXLname] * [PARCEL_ID])  #label

  LABEL

WRAP "*" #select character to wrap on

  END #label

END #class



I tried using precision in the query results, I have not tried it as part of

a label



[item name="NORTHING" precision=2]

Yea I can do that but then I have to build processes to do all the

converting...

I want to read this data live.



Anyone else have any ideas?



Thanks



One Last thought, don't know if I should enter a new topic...



I have three labels I want to label.  Right now I am using an Offset to push

one above, and one below (UC, CC, LC) with offsets.

And as such these are three separate layers in my app

I tried to combine all three into one map file but it only labels the first

one (I copied the original code in the original email and simply changed the

label field)(no matter what I do it just labels the first one it reads)



Can I combine these into one and still have them label on three different

rows



Value 1

Value 2

Value 3



Can I concatenate like this?



LABELITEM  'Value 1' & 'VALUE 2' & 'VALUE 3'



But how would I specify they are supposed to create 3 lines???



THANKS

It is always an option to create a string column and then populate it with

your numbers formatted the way that you want them to appear.  I am sure that

you realize this, but it is something that I have done in the past.

[mapserver-users] RE: Labeling issue mutli lines and precision

2009-03-26 Thread Mark Volz
In response to Jay's Labeling question:


I have multi line / field labels working:

In this example I am stringing together both the name and the parcel id as a
label, then splitting the label into two lines

CLASS
NAME 'Parcels'
TEXT ([TXLname] * [PARCEL_ID])  #label
LABEL
WRAP "*" #select character to wrap on
END #label
END #class

I tried using precision in the query results, I have not tried it as part of
a label

[item name="NORTHING" precision=2]

Is there any way to eliminate the decimal places here...I looked online but
was unable to find anything.

Thanks

The fields I am labeling are numeric...so I get this

3434.
123.

I am looking to drop all the extra decimal places...

Or maybe set it to keep two

3434.00

THANKS
