Let me try this link...


The "Bryan Bldg" label is on the wrong building but the attribute is on the correct building.  In this link (hopefully) the Bryan Bldg is one building to the north of the location the label is displayed.

Sometimes label renderings just get screwed up. You can sometimes get it to redraw the label by modifying the feature or name. On that one, I put in an edit adding the Local tag to the name (an irrelevant change) but it may prompt redrawing of the label, who knows?!

I run into this all the time too. Not sure how to get it to "kick over" to the updated location. I usually add the local tag or update the local tag when editing a marker, but I'll have to try a re-edit and see if what djboge suggests works.

I noticed after last month's update icons that were at correct locations got scattered all over the place, and they haven't come back yet.

Interesting, now I see two labels, one in the correct location, and the old offset one.

Hi everyone,

@Huey - Thanks for your question. There appears to be a slow display problem. I’ll have this looked into.
