Move Label Along Contour

This command slides an existing contour label along a contour, maintaining its alignment with the contour. After moving the label, you can type F for Flip at the Command prompt to rotate the label orientation by 180. The label must have originally been created with the Break Contours at Label option Off. If the option to Hide Drawing Under Labels was used when the label was created, the wipeout will move with the label when using this command.

In addition to moving a label, an existing label can be copied and placed at a new position along the contour by using the Copy option at the first prompt.
