Hello,

I am just hitting the limitation of labelling polygons which cannot be repeated:

I have very long and narrow polygons (tunnels) and for this use case, having a single label at the center of the polygon is really not convenient. This property for lines has been added at 4.22 so a while ago. Is adding repeating labels for polygons in the roadmap ? I saw that 4.33 added labeling multipoints geometries:

Thanks for listening,

 

Nicolas
