[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-2908) Document label conflict resolution toggle and goodness of fit vendor options

Document label conflict resolution toggle and goodness of fit vendor options
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-2908
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2908
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Mike Pumphrey
             Fix For: 1.7.4

The relevant issues are linked. Anyways:

{code}
<VendorOption name="conflictResolution">false</VendorOption>
{code}

makes labels get out of the conflict resolution game. They will not conflict with existing drawing labels, and won't conflict with those that are about to be drawn, either.

{code}
<VendorOption name="goodnessOfFit">0.7</VendorOption>
{code}

sets a number between 0 and 1 that allows the user to control wheter polygon labels that go beyond the polygon they are labelling are drawn or not. By default, they are only if 70% of the label area is within the polygon (actually, this is done by point sampling, not by area calculation, but you get the idea). If you set it to 1, you get labels only if they are fully inside (and point sampling might mean a tiny part getting out won't be noticed), set it to 0 to have the label drawn no matter what.
