Place the Labels

Placing labels in the graphic report

After completing the piece operations and uploading the image, switch to the Preview view. Starting from the left side of the sheet you will see a series of progressively numbered labels, grouped by piece and identified with different colors. The labels are placeholders where the weight value calculated by the application will be written when the report is generated.

For each group of labels related to a piece there is also a PIECE NAME label where the name and total weight of that piece will be written.

Ordered label positioning

To neatly move the labels of a piece:

  1. Click a PIECE NAME label and start dragging it to the desired position (this label is usually placed below the piece).

  2. While dragging the PIECE NAME label, press and hold the SHIFT key: all of the piece labels will align and move together in one block, sorted in ascending order from the bottom to respect the section numbering used when importing the data.

  3. Once the PIECE NAME label is in the correct position, release the mouse button and then the SHIFT key.

  4. Double-clicking the PIECE NAME label displays a Slider (Smart Align Slider).

  1. Move the Slider to the right to increase the spacing between the labels until the desired distance is reached.

  2. After releasing the Slider, the label placement is saved automatically.

  3. To change the position of a single label you can move it individually.

  4. Click Save when all labels are in the correct position.

Remember to start with label number 1 always at the bottom and then move upward with the following ones. This respects the order used when importing the area values and is consistent with the ordered label positioning procedure described above.
