textVariableAnchor property

To increase the chance of placing high-priority labels on the map, you can provide an array of textAnchor locations: the renderer will attempt to place the label at each location, in order, before moving onto the next label. Use textJustify: auto to choose justification based on anchor position. To apply an offset, use the textRadialOffset or the two-dimensional textOffset.

This property is only applied to the style if text is non-nil, and symbolPlacement is set to an expression that evaluates to or MLNSymbolPlacementPoint. Otherwise, it is ignored.

You can set this property to an expression containing any of the following:

Constant MLNTextAnchor array values Constant array, in which each element is any of the following constant string values: center: The center of the text is placed closest to the anchor. left: The left side of the text is placed closest to the anchor. right: The right side of the text is placed closest to the anchor. top: The top of the text is placed closest to the anchor. bottom: The bottom of the text is placed closest to the anchor. top-left: The top left corner of the text is placed closest to the anchor. top-right: The top right corner of the text is placed closest to the anchor. bottom-left: The bottom left corner of the text is placed closest to the anchor. bottom-right: The bottom right corner of the text is placed closest to the anchor. Predefined functions, including mathematical and string operators Conditional expressions Variable assignments and references to assigned variables Step functions applied to the $zoomLevel variable

This property does not support applying interpolation functions to the $zoomLevel variable or applying interpolation or step functions to feature attributes.
