RE: [mapserver-users] Labeling behavior at the edge of image

MINFEATURESIZE is used only for labeling and makes sense when a polygons are 
clipped. It
allows you avoid labeling slivers.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for you promptly reply. I've definitely try label_no_clip
out. However, I don't think the MINFEATURESIZE if for me. The polygon
as a whole is big enough for labeling, the problem is just that it's
sliced into two parts. Having a min size limit on it may render the
label gone at the edge, which is not the desire result.

 You can also use the label parameter MINFEATURESIZE to limit the size of the 
 features being labeled. Its value is given in pixel and for polygons its 
 compared against the narrowest portion of the computed bounding box for the 
 feature.

 Hi all,

 I've met an issue during my work. There is a polygon right at the edge
 of an generated image. By setting position to auto, the label is
 rendered, shifted a little bit off. It's as expected I would say.
 However, a question arose immediately, what happen to the label of the
 other part of the same polygon in the tile right next to this image?
 Answer is that it's not render, no label to the other part. It seems
 reasonable too. But it does seems a bit odd to viewers, since after
 tiles are shown on a browser tile by tile side by side. No one will
 notice that there is the edge slicing the polygon right into two
 parts, and the label is shifted off from the center of the polygon.
 So, if I would like to have the label sits right at the middle
 (position cc) of the polygon, then what?

 Not sure if it can be achieved. I've tried allowing partial label, but
 doesn't seem working. Anyone have any idea?
