InsertMarkupLabel

The Label Markup command enables you to insert a markup label on a model as well as drawing (2D). The label markup is linked to a point and moves if the location of the point changes. See the topic An introduction to Markups for an overview on label markups.

This software treats the normal labels (Insert Dimension Label) and markup labels differently, as the later one is considered as a Visual Bookmark.

The selection list for the Label Markup command displays the following items:

• Text text box - Start the command and enter the required text for the label in the text box.
• Reference Point selector - Select a reference point on the model or drawing where you want to attach the label. After making the selection when you move the cursor, the leader of the label will follow the cursor from the reference point.
• Next Point selector - Successively click at other locations (points) to create a branch for the leader. Once the last point for the branch has been selected, double-click to terminate the process and place the label markup.
  
  

You will note that the command is still active, hence, can start to place a new label markup or click the Apply button to set the label and quit the command. To quit the command without placing the label markup, click the Cancel button.

Once you have set the label markup, you can drag and reposition it. However, you cannot change the reference point or the text entered for the label markup. Any label markup that you add will appear on the Visual Bookmarks tab as an entry on a collapsible list. In order to delete a label markup, delete its entry from this list by right-clicking on it and selecting Delete from the context menu. The Managing the Markups section describes the actions that you can perform on the circle markups inside the list.
