I’m using the Easy Custom Labeling plugin (with QGIS 1.8). I have one feature label which refused to show itself. It’s just not visible. When I look at the attributes table, the feature name appears in the same columns as the names of all the other features. I’ve tried moving nearby labels away from it--no difference. I’ve tried moving the feature (just to see what would happen)—nothing. If I turn on Labels in the corresponding feature layer, the label appears.
Where’s my label?
You can show all labels, regardless whether they intersect, by checking the box "Show all labels" in the Engine settings of the desired label's Layer labeling settings. The Engine settings can be found on the end of the extended options tab.
If the missing label is still not displayed, I would try to edit the Label layer manually by overwriting the field in the attribute table with some other string.
