Description

Data defined labels allows to manually place any label by moving it with a mouse click & drag. But the new defined position is stored as raw coordinates so it makes sense only for the current scale. By storing the new position as an offset in paper like units (mm, inches, pixel ...) then it would allow to maintain the defined position at any scale while having the ability to move the label by click & drag.
