Pit Label Formatter

This command places text inside each pit, labeling values such as name, quantities and quality. Anything that is stored in the selected pits will be shown under Available. The formatter  screen allows for placement of text in the pits by row, selecting a justification, text size and color. The text can either be drawn horizontally or with the Align option which will orient the text with the long axis of the pit. There must be values stored in the pits and the pits must have direction assigned. 

Move items from the left under Available to the right, under Used. The order you add them is the order they will be labeled in the pits. If they are in the wrong order, use the Move Up or Down buttons. Choose a Text Size that is legible for plotting. The Label Thickness For Missing Strata As Zero is shown here as an option, but applies more to the Drillhole Label Formatter. This format may be Saved and Loaded at a later time with the Load and Save buttons.

When choosing add or Edit, the Edit Text Format screen appears. This is to select the layer and color of the text. The text may have a Prefix or Suffix attached. The Decimals can vary by item. The Row Position is important, so text isn't running on top of other text. Finally, choose a Label Alignment for left, center or right justification.
