- Settings
- Each text layer can have only one text entry. Use the style options below the graphical area to specify the font, size, style, alignment, and spacing for the text. You can also specify whether the text is stored as MText or plain text. Indicate any desired color for ghosting, fill, or frame for the label, and a rotation angle.
To use an expression for a style option, scroll to the bottom of its drop-down list. Once you have used an expression, a function symbol will be superimposed on the icon for that setting.
- Text Content
- Select a property as the source of the label text, or select Expression to define an expression. For more information, see Using the Expression Builder. To specify static text instead of a property, select Static from the Text Content dropdown and type the text in the field provided.
