Hide Label and Show Label
To reduce clutter on the map, perhaps you want to hide labels of nearby components that are not directly involved in your design. You can accomplish this using the Hide Label tool.
-
The Hide and Show Label tools only interact with labels being generated within the application itself. As discussed in the Label Configuration topic, your company might also have labels embedded within the base Design Style or basemap. The Hide and Show Label tools do not interact with these “embedded” labels.
-
You can use the Hide and Show Label tools in the Design tab or the Print tab.
-
If you Hide Labels in the Design tab before adding a page to your Print Pages pane, the map on that page also hides the labels. In other words, when you add a new page in your Print Pages pane, the map on that page reflects all previously-hidden labels in the Design tab. However, after adding the page in the Print Pages pane, the labels no longer sync between that page and the Design tab. At that point, hiding a label on the printable map does not also hide it in the Design tab, and vice versa.
-
To Hide or Show Labels, follow these steps:
-
Right-click the component whose label you want to hide.
-
On the click wheel, choose Hide Label.
-
To show the label again, right-click the component and choose Show Label.
