The same standard settings are available in each of the Edit Label Style Defaults dialog boxes.
Specifies a default text style for all label text components in a drawing. The default is Standard.
Select a text style from the list of all AutoCAD text styles defined in the current drawing.
Specifies whether all label styles in a drawing are visible.
Specifies the default layer for all label styles in a drawing.
The default layer is 0. When the layer is set to 0, the labels use the properties of the parent object layer specified on the Object Layers tab of the Drawing Settings dialog box.
Click to display the Layer Selection dialog box.
Specifies the orientation reference of the labels.
For more information, see To Specify Label Orientation.
Specifies the position of a label relative to an object. Applies only when the Orientation Reference option is set to Object and the objects are lines, arc segments, or spline segments.
Specifies whether labels are placed inside or outside a curve. Available only for curve label styles. This setting has precedence over any forced insertion setting.
Specifies the text rotation to insure that all text components in labels can be read easily in plan view.
Any text with an angle greater than the angle specified in the Readability Bias setting, or with an angle less than the Readability Bias plus 180 degrees, is in violation of plan readability, and is adjusted automatically.
For more information about plan-readable text, see To Specify that Labels Are Plan-Readable.
This option applies only to text components in labels.
Specifies the angle at which label text flips 180 degrees to remain plan readable.
Specifies the plotted height for label text. Enter a positive value greater than zero. The value is applied to all text components.
Specifies the color for label components. Click to open the Select Color dialog box.
Specifies the linetype for label components. Click to open the Select Linetype dialog box.
Specifies the lineweight for label components. Click to open the Lineweight dialog box.
Specifies whether the label style component should span outside segments.
Specifies an arrow head style for a leader.
Select an arrow head style from the list. Or, select None to display leaders without arrow heads. The default arrow head style is Closed Filled.
For more information about arrow head styles, see “Choose Dimension Arrowheads” in AutoCAD Help.
Specifies the size of the arrow head. The default arrow head size is defined in plot units (either inches or millimeters). The plot units are determined by the drawing units established in the drawing settings.
Enter zero or a positive number. A value of zero means that a leader is displayed without an arrow head.
Specifies whether leaders are visible when you drag a label from its original position.
Specifies the shape of the leader.
Specifies the color for leaders. Click to open the Select Color dialog box.
Specifies the linetype for leaders. Click to open the Select Linetype dialog box.
Specifies the lineweight for leaders. Click to open the Lineweight dialog box.
Specifies how label content is displayed after it is dragged from its default position.
Specifies whether a border is visible for dragged labels.
Specifies the shape of the border.
The radius used to create a rounded rectangle is calculated by adding the border and leader gap value and half the overall text height (including descending characters, and subscript and superscript characters).
Specifies the distance between the leader and the label text. Enter a positive value greater than zero.
The gap value is also used to define the space between the border and the label text.
Specifies the plotted height for all text components. Enter a positive value greater than zero.
Specifies the location where a leader hook is drawn in relation to label content.
Middle is the default setting.
Specifies how label text is justified in relation to the leader.
Specifies the color for dragged components. Click to open the Select Color dialog box.
Specifies the linetype for dragged components. Click to open the Select Linetype dialog box.
Specifies the lineweight for dragged components. Click to open the Lineweight dialog box.
Collapses the property categories to show only the top-level item.
Expands categories to show all properties.
Selects all the check boxes in the Override column, which prevents the setting from being changed if the value is changed at a higher level setting. This option is not available at the drawing level.
