Label override information is written as additional LabelSource XML elements within one LabelLayer XML element. The base label layer information is added as the last LabelSource element. (Prior to 11.0.3, MapInfo Pro added label layers allowing overlaps within a separate LabelLayer element.) The following rules apply when writing label information to a MWS:

  • All overrides inherit the Auto property from the base label layer.
  • If the base layer is invisible, then all label overrides are set as invisible in the MWS workspace, so that MapInfo Pro and MapXtreme can read the workspace properly.
