A complete linework labeling solution

Label Linework is a full featured solution, allowing total control of the label type, size, placement, rotation of labels and clipping of the underlying linework.

Automation Ready - Label Linework can operate from the command line using a Dialog Box interface or as a part of more complex automation operations using MapTools Commander - process a drawing or a groups of drawings unattended.

Linework Labels can be:

Any text string you enter. You control the spacing, text size, offset distance from the linework, label layer, which side of the linework and optional cutout.

A text label derived from the elevation of the linework (for automated contour labeling).

Any standard AutoCAD block.

Attribute blocks with any number of attributes.

Smart Rotation
Our Smart Rotation feature can make sure your text labels are never upside-down. You can choose this option for any of the label types.

Grouping
Our grouping feature creates a special block to hold all linework pieces and the text or block entities associated with it. This platform independent feature (works the same in all versions of AutoCAD) allows you to change a piece of labeled linework to modify the block, text content, size or label layer.

Linework Cutout
If labels are placed "ON" the linework (directly on top of the linework), a cutout feature can be chosen which will clip all linework in the label area and either erase it or change its layer. This allow labels to be plotted without the underlying linework without erasing it.

Preserve Linework
This option will make a copy of the selected linework and label it instead of the original. The new (copied) linework can use the same layer as the original or it can be placed on a new layer.

Label linework automatically
All of the linework labelling features are accessable from automation routines using MapTools Commander (even the "elevation" mode for automated contour labelling). This capability allows automated linework labeling as a part of more complex "batch" operations.
