symbolPlacement
Label placement relative to its geometry.
enum
point
point - The label is placed at the point where the geometry is located.
line - The label is placed along the line of the geometry. Can only be used on LineString and Polygon geometries.
line-center - The label is placed at the center of the line of the geometry. Can only be used on LineString and Polygon geometries. Note that a single feature in a vector tile may contain multiple line geometries.
Parameters: zoom
symbolSpacing
Distance between two symbol anchors.
number
250
pixels
1
Parameters: zoom
symbolAvoidEdges
If true, the symbols will not cross tile edges to avoid mutual collisions. Recommended in layers that don't have enough padding in the vector tile to prevent collisions, or if it is a point symbol layer placed after a line symbol layer. When using a client that supports global collision detection, like Mapbox GL JS version 0.42.0 or greater, enabling this property is not needed to prevent clipped labels at tile boundaries.
boolean
false
Parameters: zoom
symbolSortKey
Sorts features in ascending order based on this value. Features with a higher sort key will appear above features with a lower sort key when they overlap. Features with a lower sort key will have priority over other features when doing placement.
number
Parameters: zoom, feature
symbolZOrder
Controls the order in which overlapping symbols in the same layer are rendered
enum
auto
auto - If symbol-sort-key is set, sort based on that. Otherwise sort symbols by their y-position relative to the viewport.
viewport-y - Symbols will be sorted by their y-position relative to the viewport.
source - Symbols will be rendered in the same order as the source data with no sorting applied.
Parameters: zoom
iconAllowOverlap
If true, the icon will be visible even if it collides with other previously drawn symbols.
boolean
false
iconImage
Parameters: zoom
iconIgnorePlacement
If true, other symbols can be visible even if they collide with the icon.
boolean
false
iconImage
Parameters: zoom
iconOptional
If true, text will display without their corresponding icons when the icon collides with other symbols and the text does not.
boolean
false
iconImage, textField
Parameters: zoom
iconRotationAlignment
In combination with symbolPlacement, determines the rotation behavior of icons.
enum
auto
map - When symbol-placement is set to point, aligns icons east-west. When symbol-placement is set to line or line-center, aligns icon x-axes with the line.
viewport - Produces icons whose x-axes are aligned with the x-axis of the viewport, regardless of the value of symbol-placement.
auto - When symbol-placement is set to point, this is equivalent to viewport. When symbol-placement is set to line or line-center, this is equivalent to map.
iconImage
Parameters: zoom
iconSize
Scales the original size of the icon by the provided factor. The new pixel size of the image will be the original pixel size multiplied by iconSize. 1 is the original size; 3 triples the size of the image.

height - The icon is scaled in the y-dimension to fit the height of the text.
both - The icon is scaled in both x- and y-dimensions.

textWritingMode
The property allows control over a symbol's orientation. Note that the property values act as a hint, so that a symbol whose language doesn’t support the provided orientation will be laid out in its natural orientation.

The order of elements in an array define priority order for the placement of an orientation variant.
