About Section View Labels

Use the Toolspace Settings tree to create and edit section view label styles.

You can label section views automatically when you create them, using specified label styles. After creating section views, you can also add Offset Level and Gradient labels.

If a section view contains projected AutoCAD objects, label styles for these objects are managed as feature settings for the section view object.

Projection labels show the location of an object projected into the section view, such as a block or a point.

Use the Add Section View Labels option to access the Add Labels dialog box if you need to create or modify a style before labeling a section view.
