Ability to turn on/off TextSymbolizer "left-to-right" aligning feature
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-2601
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2601
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: WMS
Affects Versions: 1.7.2
Reporter: Björn Harrtell
Assignee: Andrea Aime
The default behaviour of TextSymbolizer is to naturally keep text aligned so that it can be read left to right and not upside down, i.e the text is flipped at certain angle thresholds.
In some cases this behaviour would be nice to be able to turn off. One of the cases discussed is when using a character symbol as an arrow and using it as the TextSymbolizer for a linestring-feature to represent the direction of traffic.
A suggested vendor option in SLD would be:
<VendorOption name="flipText">false</VendorOption>
or
<VendorOption name="alignTextLeftToRight">false</VendorOption>
