Label Parameter Options

The columns in the Label Parameters window display annotation options for the label. The parameter names
are listed in order in the first column.
Spaces: You increase or decrease the spacing between parameters in the label by entering a representative
number of spaces (zero or greater). This option disables if the Break option is selected.
Prefix: You can add a prefix to the parameter value by adding a text string in this option.
Sample Value: You can change how the place holding text appears in the parameter.
Suffix: You can add a suffix to the parameter value by adding a text string in this column.
Break: You force a line break immediately after the parameter by checking this box. Otherwise, the text
wraps within the label boundary.
Wrap between parameters only: You force text wrapping in the label to break at the end of parameters by
checking this box. If not selected, text wraps at the first word reaching the boundary.
