Editing Profile Labels

Product Documentation
Intermediate

Edit the set of labels used on a profile line.

Edit the settings for each label type, and import or save label sets.

Editing the labels on a profile does not affect instances of the same profile in other profile views.

Profile labels that display curve and tangent dimensions have editing grips that you can use to move labels.

Use the Label Set Dialog Boxto numerically edit the position of labels, change the style of a label, or save your changes as a label style.

Label styles ensure convenience and consistency. A particular profile may require different labels. After the labels are edited, save the modified label set for reuse with other profiles.
