Problem description

When placing elements of the installation with automatic labels, or when using the function Insert to all selected components to place element labels on the drawings, or after generating Schematic view ­ with Automatic labels a situation can occur where labels overlap with each other and with installation elements.

Solution

  • group of commands Align... available in the drop-down menu;
  • key combination Shift + Alt + arrows or Alt + arrows to move the labels in a given direction.

These actions can be performed on the plan view and on the schematic view as well.


The location of labels belonging to a group of particular elements can be quickly modified by changing the Component styles in the General data window:
