[Geoserver-users] tiled Tiling causes duplicate labels

Hello,

I have a layer that has labels and when I use “tiled” Tiling it causes some of the labels to render multiple times. So you’ll have 2 of the same labels that look to be in different tiles. I took a snapshot of what I’m talking about and included this in the email. Is there any way I can stop this from happening?

Thanks

I think this issue can be solved through metatiling and GeoWebCache. Since I’m planning to deploy an instance of GeoWebCache anyways I’ll tackle duplicate labels then.

Thanks

Indeed, this is the right answer. But mind, this will reduce the
labels duplication, cannot remove it completely. If you don't want
duplicates at all you'll have to give up tiling for the labels (e.g.,
make a separate OL layer for the labels and don't tile just that one).
