The general rule with weights is that a feature cannot be overlapped by a label with an equal or lower weight.ġ7 Map Scale Set a scale range for labels so that they don't display until the map scale reaches a larger scale. Setting label weights and feature weights establishes a ranking system for labels when there is a conflict with other labels or features on the map. Labels with lower priority that conflict with higher priority labels may be placed at alternate positions or dropped from the map. Labels with a higher priority will generally be placed first. Preference priority Lines Position relative to line Follow curve of line Orient to page or line Polygons Best positionġ5 Label Priority ArcMap uses label priority ranking to determine the order in which labels will be placed on the map.

In this topic, you will learn advanced methods for modifying label properties and for creating and placing dynamic labels.Ħ Dynamic Labels are based on an attribute and display using ArcMap's default settings. ArcMap provides multiple ways to control how and where labels display in relation to point, line, and polygon features. For example, it may not be obvious which feature a label belongs to, labels for different features may overlap, and, in some situations, labels for some features may even be omitted. Adding labels is one way to accomplish this task, but simply placing labels anywhere on a map doesn't necessarily help people understand the information presented. The goal of any map is to communicate information in the clearest possible fashion. Hardcopy Maps Digital Maps Convert to Annotation Label Maps What is text and how do I use it in ArcGIS?
