I have two layers - settlement point layer and polygon layer, which contains an object that I would like to use as an obstacle for the labels of settlements. I'm applying the following steps:

1. Label settlements with Show labels for this layer option, as a result some labels cover polygon boundary

2. In the polygon layer Properties dialogue I select Labels > Discourage other labels from covering features in this layer, and click OK

3. Nothing changes, and when I check Properties > Labels of the polygon layer the option is set to the default No labels value.

The same steps work perfectly fine in 2.12.3

This should be fixed since 2.14. Can you confirm?
