All drawing views can have view labels, which may contain text and symbols. You can set the contents of the main view labels and section view labels before you create the drawing. You can also adjust them after you have created the drawing.

1. On the Drawings & reports tab, click Drawing properties and select the drawing type.
2. Load drawing properties that are as close to the ones you need as possible.
3. Do one of the following depending on the drawing type:

   Single-part, assembly and cast unit drawings:

   1. Click View creation in the options tree on the left, select the view and the properties that you want to change, and click View properties.
   2. Click Attributes and go to the Label tab.

   General arrangement drawings:

   1. Click View...
   2. Go to the Label tab.
4. Click the ... button next to A1 - A5 to open the Mark Contents dialog box.

   The illustration in the view properties dialog box is only one way to position the label text. When you modify the positioning, the illustration in the dialog box does not change.

   

5. On the Content tab, select the elements that you want to include in the view label mark.
6. If needed, select an element from the list and click < Add frame and select the frame Type and Color.
7. If needed, select an element from the list and select the text Color, Font and Height.
8. Go to the Position tab and set the text position, horizontal and vertical offset, and the text alignment.

   Text positioning depends on whether you use a symbol or not.

9. Click OK.
10. Select the view label Symbol you want to use in the label.

    You can simply use only a label or add a symbol in it. You can also set the color, size, line length and the position of the view label.
