Ian,
Label text is positioned based on the bbox enclosing the text and in the
case of your three labels the position point is the upper left corner.

Perhaps OFFSET x y is what you are after. I am having trouble visualizing
the problem.
But I think you want to nudge the label a bit to line up better with
elements on the map.
OFFSET allows you to move the label away from the start by by a number of
pixels.
Good luck with it.

I'm not sure I understand all of these issues, but have you tried
concatenating all the your test into a multiple line string and use a
special character as the line break indicator, say an '@' char. Then in
the LABEL block use WRAP '@'
You can also use ALIGN CENTER|LEFT|RIGHT to control the a
Folks,
I am not sure what the correct terminology is for our current issue but
let me give explaining it a try.
We are using a label layer with transform off to display some overview
information on a map.
The text sometimes needs to be lined up horizontally or spaced evenly
vertically.
* Mapserver chooses the longest visible segment to place the label. If
you set the LABEL_NO_CLIP processing keyword, it will select the
longest segment of the underlying feature, whether it is visible or
not.
* There's no such thing as alignment between labels coming from
different features. The al

All,
I'm playing around with generating a map collar image by labeling some lines
with MapServer.
I get the labels looking about what I would like them to look like, but the
alignment vertically ( and this applies to horizontal alignment as well ) is
not playing nice.
