Description

It would be very nice if there was an option to force polygon labels to fall completely within the polygon. The MINFEATURESIZE directive does a good job of weeding polygons that are too small but many labels are still placed that do not fall within the polygon. ArcMap has an option to tell labels to fall within the polygons. I have attached a screenshot with ArcMap on the left and MapServer on the right to illustrate the problem.
