Mapusers:
Good morning. I've got some data exported from InfoCad which is point =
information with text and an angle (specifically its a parcel dimension =
layer). The data seems to be triplicated (three records of the same =
data--though sometime more or less), unfortunately the data is not =
directly on top of one another but slightly off set. =20
The data in the .dbf file is not sequential, so its not realistic to =
just null out the text label in sequential passess of the data.
Does mapserver have anyway to use a first come first label, so that it =
wont look triple typed. i.e. if a label already occupies the space, it =
will only get one label?
Thank you for any suggestions.
Steve Lehr
