This field displays the name of the current label
profile. The profile is a saved format. You can create new profiles, save them
and reload them as your project needs require.
|
| Save Profile

Saves changes to the current profile. If desired, you
can change the entry in the Profile Name field and save the changed profile
under a different name.
|
| Load Profile

| Available Elements
|
On the left side of the dialog is a list of
available elements that can be added to the wire label.
|
| Add to Expression
|
To add an element, select it, and then click the
Add to Expression button. It will then be
shown on the right side of the dialog as part of the label.
|
| Currently Selected Elements
|
The right side of the dialog displays the currently
selected label elements. Below this is an example of what the label will look
like in an actual drawing.
|
| Reset

Reloads the combination of elements that you had
when you entered the dialog.
|

Empties the field of all selected elements.
|
| Remove Element
|
To remove an element from the label, select it, then
either press the
<Delete> key or right click on the
element and select
Delete from the menu.
|
| Prefix and Suffix
|
These fields allow you to define a character string
that will be placed at the beginning (Prefix) or end (Suffix) of the label
element. These fields only become active when one of the added elements is
selected.
The
Width and
Fill with fields allow you to set the
number and type of characters that will be used for the selected label element.
These fields become available when you select a label element and then select
the
Fixed number of characters check box. (If
you do not select this check box the software will use as many characters as
necessary for a given value.)
The entry in the
Width field sets the number of digits
that will be used for the value (more will be used if necessary).
The
Fill with field defines the character
that will be used if necessary to fill out the value to match the width value.
Example:
Page Number set to
Width 3,
Fill with 0. Labels on page 2 will use
the value 002. Labels on page 13 will use the value 013. Labels on page 3333
will use the value 3333.

| Duplicate Character section
|
The options in this section allow you to format how
labels will be distinguished when more than one label appears on the same line:
-
First number/character - This field
defines how the labels will be marked, numbers or letters, and what the first
value will be.
-
Separator - This field defines the
character that will divide the value from the rest of the wire label.
-
Suppress first occurrence - Is this
option is selected, then the first item on the line will not have the
additional value, but succeeding items will. For example: 102, 102.1, 102.2.

| OK
|
Saves the changes and closes the dialog. When you
have made the desired changes to the wire label format, use the
Save Profile button to save the changes
for all future projects using the profile.
If you have not used the
Save Profile option, the changes will
only apply to the current project.
