sinc Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Did you try changing the "Display" on the "Dragged State" tab to "As Composed" instead of "Stacked Text"? This usually fixes that problem, but typically creates another one. When "Display" is set to "As Composed", it generally breaks labels so they don't flip correctly between left and right. So to use "As Composed", you generally have to create two label styles, one for when you drag it to the right side of the pipe, and another for when you drag it to the left side. Having two Styles is really annoying, though, so you may want to just recreate your label style from scratch, creating the components in the order you want.

baker Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 yeah, i tried.. still having this issue.. but moved on.. lol. now i have a profile label issues.. lol. I have a style i dragged and dropped from an older drawing into this drawing. I am not getting the same results of location. basically, i am getting this; however, i want this; notice the different locations of the insertion. the first pic the line is inside the structure. the second image the line is offset from the top of the structure. another thing is when i insert the label, the text drops all the way to a zero "Y" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
