Label picked point with X, Y, Z, XY or XYZ coordinate formats.
Additionally, the prefixes X=, Y=, Z= (for engineering drawings) or E=,
N= , H= (for geographic coordinates annotations) can be specified in
front of the numbers.
Format
X: Check
this option to label the X coordinate of the picked point. For geographic
data, this is also the longitude or Easting value of the picked point.
Y: Check
this option to label the Y coordinate of the picked point. For geographic
data, this is also the latitude or Northing value of the picked point.
Z: Check this option to label the Z coordinate (height) of the
picked point.
XY: Check
this option to label the X and Y coordinates of the picked point.
For geographic data, this is the longitude-latitude or Easting-Northing
value of the picked point.
XYZ: Check
this option to label the X, Y and Z coordinates of the picked point. For
geographic data, this is the longitude-latitude-Height or Easting-Northing-Height
value of the picked point.
Coordinate Annotation: This option creates two text objects showing
the X coordinate (Eastings) and Y coordinate (Northings) at right angles
to each other with a user-specified gap between the picked point and the
start of the annotation text. The two text objects can be prefixed with
E=,N= or X=,Y= or M=,P=.
The last prefix option M=,P= is a new option added in this update and is
Portuguese notation for Easting and Northing.
.
Running Number: Check this option to label a running sequence of
integer numbers on each picked point.
Starting Station Number: Enter
the starting station number of use during annotation.

This command places text labels along Polylinie, line, 3dfaces and spline vertices. The following types of labels can be created for each vertex.
Annotate Using:
X co-ordinate value:
The X co-ordinate of each vertex is written as a text label next to each vertex.
Y co-ordinate value:
The Y co-ordinate of each vertex is written as a text label next to each vertex.
Elevations (Z):
The elevation of each vertex is written as a text next to each
vertex.
XY co-ordinate value:
The x and y co-ordinates of each vertex is written as a text label next to each
vertex.
XYZ co-ordinate value:
The x, y and z co-ordinates of each vertex is written as a text label next
to each vertex.
Running Number:
The vertex count starting from the beginning is written (this initial
count can be set by the user)
Cumulative Distances from start:
The cumulative slope distance from the first vertex is computed and
written next to each vertex (the initial starting distance can be set by the
user).
Prefix Options:
Prefix with X=, Y=, Z= Choosing this option places the prefixes, X=, Y=,
Z= before each coordinate value
Prefix with E=, N=, H= Choosing this option places the prefixes, E=, N=,
H= before each coordinate value
No prefix (co-cordinates only) No prefixes are written, only co-ordinates
values are written
Prefix with M=, P=, H= Choosing this option places the prefixes, M=, P=,
H= before each coordinate value. This is Portuguese notation for Easting
and Northing.
Label first and last points only:
Places labels on the first and last points of Polylinies only. Useful if the Polylinie is too dense and you do not want lables at every point.

Polyliniensegmente beschriften
Command
line: GT_SEGLABEL
This command writes the segment distance annotation along each segment of the
Polylinie.


What to label?
Distances: Choosing this option places the inter-vertex distance to be
placed as a label text.
Bearing: Choosing this option places the surveyors bearing between the two
vertices as a label text
Slope: Choosing this option causes the segment slope annotation to be placed
as a label text.
Distances@Slope: Choosing this option writes the 'Distance @ Slope'
annotation format.
Distances@Bearing: Choosing this option writes the 'Distance @ Bearing'
annotation format.
Distances Format:
Clicking this option opens up a
distances format dialog box. This allows the distances to be annotated in various
ways.
Slope: Displays distances as actual slope distances.
Horizontal: Displays distances as horizontally projected values.
Apply Segment length check before labeling: Checking this box makes a
check for the length of the segment and if it falls within the specified range
only, they will be labelled.
Bearing Format:
Clicking this option opens up a
bearing format dialog box. This allows the bearings to be annotated in various
ways.
Decimal Degrees: Writes the whole circle bearing in decimal degrees.
Deg/Min/Sec (000-00-00): Writes the bearing in degrees, minutes and
seconds in the DDD-MM-SS format.
0d00'00': Writes the whole circle bearings in deg, min and sec format.
0º00'00": degree-minute-second format in the style D°M'S".
N 0d00'00' E: Writes the bearing in surveyors units.
Radians: (0.000r) Writes the whole circle bearing in radians
Gradients: (0.000g) Writes the whole circle bearing in gradients (One
gradient=1/400th of a circle)
Slope label format:
As percentage:
Choosing this option causes the grade annotation to be created as a
percentage. for example, uphill grades are created as "2% Up"
and downhill grades are created as "2% Down".
As decimal:
Choosing this option causes the grade annotation to be created as a decimal.
For example, uphill grade will be created as "1:50 Up" and
downhill grade will be created as "1:50 Down".
Direction:
Choosing this option causes the strings "Up" or "Down"
to be written along the segment depending on whether the slope is going
downwards or upwards.
Degrees:
Choosing this option causes the slope values in degrees to be annotated next
to the segment.
Precision for grade value: Enter the number of decimal places to be used
in the precision for grade values.
Treat Polylinie as elevation value: If this option is checked, the Polylinie is treated as an elevation view (or long/cross section as called in
some countries) and the segment slope annotation is done accordingly. In
elevation view, the Polylinie is assumed to be drawn in the Z plane.
Annotation Position:
Along Segment: Choosing this option places the annotation text
along the direction of the segment.
Perpendicular to segment: Choosing this option places the
annotation text perpendicular to the direction of the segment being annotated.
The next two options further specify the annotation text placement positions by
specifying if the annotation is along the segment, above or below it. For Perpendicular
to segment option above, The Above, Below and On Segment option in this
section will be grayed out.
Above Segment: The annotation will be placed above the segment.
For the purpose of direction, the segment is imagined from its start point to
end point as a horizontal X-axis, and the the space above it is considered as
the Above Space and vice versa.
Below Segment: The annotation will be placed below the segment.
For the purpose of direction, the segment is imagined from it start point to end
point as a horizontal X-axis, and the the space above it is considered as the
Above Space and vice versa.
On Segment: The annotation will be placed on and along the
segment.
Left of segment: This option enables the annotation to be placed to the
left of the direction of the segment being annotated. This is applicable only
when the Perpendicular option is chosen.
Right of segment: This option enables the annotation to be placed to the
right of the direction of the segment being annotated. This is applicable only
when the Perpendicular option is chosen.
Text Orientation:
Always upright: Flips text by 180 degrees to make them readable
without having to turn your head upside down.
Always aligned: Does not perform any text flipping. The rotation
angle will be as determined entirely by the segment direction. ARC label options:
Midpoint of arc: Choosing this option places the label at the midpoint
of each arc segment. This may be an arc segment of a Polylinie or an ARC object
in AutoCAD.
Midpoint of chord: Choosing this option places the label at the midpoint
of each chord length of the arc segment. This may be an arc segment of a Polylinie or an ARC object in AutoCAD.
Label Formatting:
Label Text Height: Specifies
the label text height.

Command
line: GT_CONTLABEL
The GT_CONTLABEL command places labels along Polylinies, lines, arcs and splines. You can use it to label just about anything
that is a linear object such as label roads, fences, boundaries, traversas, etc.
The label can be the elevation of the object or you can specify a user string to
be placed as a label.

What to label?
Elevation:
Check this option to label the elevation information
of the Polylinie
User String: Check this option to enter a user-defined string value that
is used to annotate along the Polylinie.
Curve Length: Check this option to label the length of contour.
Text

Always upright:
Check this option to create labels that are always
face up. This cause any text that is between rotation angles of 90 and 270
degrees AutoCAD-wise to be flipped by 180 degrees.
Always aligned: Check this option to create labels which are always
aligned to the direction of the line. This can result in inverted text.
Text spacing
Repeated:
Checking this option causes GT_CONTLABEL to place the labels
repeatedly along the line at an interval specified in Annotation Distance (see
below)
At picked point: Checking this option allows the user to manually pick
points on the line where the annotation is desired. This option does not place
annotations automatically and does so only at the picked point.
At cutting line locations: Checking this option allows the user to
specify two points that define a line and the program will generate annotations
at every intersection of the line with the selected contour Polylinie objects.
At mid-point of curve: Checking this option places the label at the mid
of the contour.
Other annotation parameters
Text Style:
Select the text style to use for the annotation.
Text Height: Specify
the text height to use for annotation.
Annotation Spacing: Specify
the annotation distance between labels when the Repeated Option above is

The GT_LENTEXT command creates a length
annotation. If you have a segment of a line or polyline, its length can be
easily annotated as text using this command. Often, the drawing units will
be scaled and different from the real units. To accommodate this, it is
possible to scale the length using a length modifier. You can add,
subtract, multiple or divide the DWG length by a factor to create the
exact annotation desired.
