Pretty Labels

Publeyêe per wdmanuel lo 31 December 2010 en English.

I love pretty labels.

Labels of place=locality or place=village display as one long line, blocking the names of nearby places if they are drawn as just points instead of ways. And so, I set out to clean up the labels for subdivisions along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City by redrawing a lot of the subdivisions as shapes.

I now feel at peace.

Interesting, I never knew that polygons adjust labels as a multi-line text. Nice work!

I just get "Page not found". Have you removed them?
