<div>Hi list,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I thought that I would have found a nice workaround by splitting my attributes for labeling into different shapefiles. </div>
<div>Streetnames and parcel numbers are labelled based on attributes and thus keeping rotation, units are meters for original display. Fine. </div>
<div>Housenumbers are labelled in a user defined way which includes preferences on positioning labels. I chose highest priority for middle left/middle right and zero priority for all the other postions. Units are millimeters for printing display.</div>
<div>Attached you see my results in a screenshot: view (upper left), map (lower left), result (pdf)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am running out of time by experimenting and creating results more or less like the one shown.</div>
<div>Am I totally mistaken in what I am trying to do with gvSIG and always creating user errors or is there somebody out there who managed to design a nice layout of a cadastral map with readable labels in scale 1:5000 for printing purposes?</div>
<div>I really do NOT want to go back to esri altohough I knoe most of the tweaks for layouts in the Arcworld.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Still hoping,</div>
<div> </div>

<div>Hi Falk, hi list,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>after posting my message I also found the thread Falk mentioned which did not motivate me that much ;-)</div>
<div>I also tried Falk's workaround (more or less as I am working on shapefiles) which gave some nice results regarding street names and parcel numbers but still the labeling is far from being acceptable (esp. with house numbers).</div>
<div>Now I am wondering if my thoughts on the default position of the labels are correct (by labeling using the attributes).</div>
<div>Can somebody who knows it confirm the default position of labels?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Maybe my problem with the position of the labels lies already within the data source which is (you maybe guessed it) a dxf.</div>
<div>This I will examine today.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>best,</div>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff">Hi Johannes,<br><br>a few month ago I had the same problem and discussed it here in the forum (<a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/gvsig_internacional@listserv.gva.es/msg00446.html" target="_blank">http://www.mail-archive.com/gvsig_internacional@listserv.gva.es/msg00446.html</a>). Currently there is no solution in gvSIG, but perhaps there is a workaround:<br>
<br>I mainly use data from PostGIS, and for labelling purposes I always create a view with repositioned point features (depending on the estimated text height). Of course, this works only for reading not writing geometry.<br>
<br>Alternativly, if you plan to edit your labels, you could think about <br>a) permanently reposition the labels until the problem is solved in gvSIG<br>b) create a second geometry column with repositioned geometry and update the original with a trigger<br>
<br>Hope this helps,<br><br><br>Falk Krusche<br><pre cols="72">--------

<div>Hi list,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>today seems to be my day of questions <img style="MARGIN: 0px 0.2ex; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle" src="cid:361@goomoji.gmail" width="12" height="12" goomoji="361"></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now I am stuck with labeling. </div>
<div>By using the attribute-based option for labeling I can keep rotation values for labels according to the attribute table.</div>
<div>Obviously the default position for all labels is in the lower right "corner" below the point feature which is labelled (see screenshot "label_attribute").</div>
<div> </div>
<div>By using the user defined option for labeling it is possible to place the labels centered on top of the point features (see screenshot "label_userdefined").</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The perfect way of labeling in my case would be the combination of these two:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'd like to have all labels placed centered on top of the point features while keeping the rotation value (see my problem at "Hauptstraße" in the screenshots).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>How could I possibly do this?</div>
<div> </div>
