Dynamic Labeling of List Objects

Print Previous page Top page Next page

This mode allows placing labels on top of the map, taking into account the current map display composition and object visibility. Dynamic labeling is performed based on the dimensions of the window's client area. To improve readability when scaling the map, such labels are always drawn while preserving the font height selected by the user. When labeling an area object, the label is placed in the visible part of the labeled polygon. When scrolling the map image, the label automatically shifts so that its text fits entirely within the client area of the window.

 

For curvilinear labels, it is not recommended to select a background. It is recommended to select a glow around the characters (Narrow outline).

 

For dynamic labeling of list objects:

1. Enable the Label Objects mode.

2. Select a semantic characteristic for labeling.

3. Enable the Label Objects Dynamically mode.

 

Labeling Parameters

Repeating Labels

This mode is intended for placing repeating labels.

Supported for labeling linear objects.

Indent from Line Edge

This mode is intended for offsetting the first and last labels from the edges of the line.

Supported for labeling linear objects.

Maximum and Minimum Interval

This mode is intended for specifying the allowable distance range between repeating labels.

Supported for labeling linear objects.

Line Length for Label Wrapping

This mode is intended for wrapping text to a new line after the specified number of characters. A value of "0" means no wrapping.

Automatically Place Above or Below the Line

This mode is intended for automatically placing the label above or below a linear object if it cannot be labeled according to the parameters set in the Label Parameters dialog (by the upper or lower edge).

Advanced Label Intersection Analysis

This mode is intended for enabling the intersection analysis of the created label with point and linear objects of all document maps. If the checkbox is disabled, label intersection analysis is performed with objects of the map on which the labeled object is located.
