Question

I have a street layer that is labeled, however it is showing on top of an anno layer when it should be behind the anno symbol..how do ii push this label back behind the anno layer?

Hello,

I am encountering the exact same issue. My annotation layer is above the street layer in my table of content, and the label weight of the street layer is set to 0. Can there be another reason that this is happening? I am using ArcGIS Pro.

Thanks!

You may also want to set your label weights a little lower.

You need to move the annotation layer up above the streets layer in your table of content.
