The Drawing Label tool is a point object that provides descriptive information for the drawing.
By default, a label object includes a title, the scale of the drawing, and an automatically assigned drawing number. The number of the sheet that contains the drawing can also be included in the label.
Many of these values default, depending on where the label was created: on a design layer, or in a viewport annotation, for example.
To create a drawing label:
1. Ensure that the appropriate layer is active.
2. Click the Drawing Label tool from the Dims/Notes tool set.
3. Click on the drawing at the desired location to place a drawing label object.
4. Click again to set the rotation.
If this is the first time the object is inserted in this session, the Object Properties dialog box opens. These parameters apply to subsequent placements of the object and can be changed in the Object Info palette. Click OK.
Drawing label objects maintain a constant size regardless of the drawing scale.
Click to show/hide the parameters.
5. Set the line attributes as needed using the Attributes palette.
