The Label Tool provides the general look and layout for labels. It also follows some of the formatting options determined for the field in the Attribute Manager. For example, if the field in the attribute table used for the labels is defined as having two decimal places, the labels will have two decimal places.
You can make individual changes to the labels by using the Selection Tools in the Editing toolbar. You can change the style of the labels individually using the tools in the Display toolbar.
If you are making modifications to individual labels with the intention of printing a map, switch the view pane to Map View mode by clicking the Map View Mode button before begining your edits.
The layer type determines which options are available for labels. For example, an unstructured layer can contain points, lines, and polygons, and all options are available.
