hello there!
in my old v10 version i used both BestPlacement and PointPlacement like this:

layer.ZoomLevelSet.ZoomLevel11.DefaultTextStyle.BestPlacement = true;
layer.ZoomLevelSet.ZoomLevel11.DefaultTextStyle.PointPlacement = PointPlacement.UpperLeft;

and now in v12 that you have made them all one property (TextPlacement) i can use only one of them , how can i get the same results?

Hey @Marios_Ntallaris,

Right, so I think what you are saying is that in v10 you set a preference to UpperLeft position, but in the case of overlaps, nudge the labels around to still fit. In v12, with it now being just AutoPlacement, you cannot set a preference in the case of no overlaps. Is that correct? Can you provide screenshots of before and after so that I can visualize this?

Thanks,
Kyle
