It'd be great if the 3D labelling capabilities could be improved, by providing a similar level of customisation available with 2D labelling. There aren't currently any suitable techniques to label streets when displaying a 3D photo textured mesh layers within both ArcGIS Pro and in 3D webscenes.


Currently we are labelling line features but the line labels are visible through the buildings that are in front of them. Can we please have the ability to control drawing order (display order) of our labels in 3D space?

Images attached show the current labelling available in ESRI and some of the techniques that have been implemented by Google in their mapping platform.

Great idea

Yes, please. Both Apple Maps and Google maps now have this capability, how is it that a mapping company doesn't 5 years after this idea was first suggested?
