Plot numbers & text labels

The Annotation menu (✍, in the palette) holds two tools for labelling your drawing: plot numbering and free text labels.

Number plots (🔢)

Automatically numbers every plot. A panel lets you set the position of numbers, the starting number, whether to skip 13, and to auto-number or clear. Numbers follow the street order.

Text label (🔤)

Places free text anywhere on the 2D plan or sketch. When you add a label you can choose:

• Font — pick from the font selector.
• Size — defaults to 12; change per label.
• Leader — when ticked, your first click sets the leader target and the second click places the text, with a leader line drawn between them. The leader attaches at the left or right edge of the text at mid-height, never behind it, and you can add a draggable elbow. With leader off, a single click places the text.
• Auto-scale — keep the label a fixed size on screen, or let it scale with the drawing.

Double-click a label to reopen its editor and change the text or options.
