Hello,
I would like to label a road with two route shields. Currently the shields are created with two side by side point symbols and the route numbers are created by a single label expression with extra spaces so that the route numbers fall on the correct shield. This works great when each route number has two digits. It does not when one of the routes is a single digit (see figure 1 and 2).
Question:
How can I enforce that the route number is centered on each shield? I would like to avoid using annotations, or very complex queries that test the length of each route number.
Thank You!

Figure 2. The road shields are no longer centered when I the roads are a single digit long.
