Text Label Options Area

(For information on accessing the dialog box containing this item, see "Editing Feature Appearance.)

The Text Label Options area allows you to determine for all feature ID labels the background color, line color, and whether or not a shadow appears around the border. To use the features in this area, you must first select the All features text labels option. PC-DMIS automatically selects all the features from the List of Features.

Background Color - This button displays a Color dialog box from which you can choose the background color for the feature ID labels.

Line Color - This button displays a Color dialog box from which you can choose line color for the feature ID labels. Changing the line color changes the right and bottom border color on the feature ID label.

Clicking the Default button causes all feature ID labels created thereafter to use the line, color, and shadow settings displayed when you clicked Default.

You can also change these items by right-clicking on a feature's ID label and selecting the appropriate item from the resulting shortcut menu. See "Feature Shortcut Menu" in "Using Shortcut Keys and Shortcut Menus"
