Labeling woes

AdrianaChaves — Wed, 13 Dec 2017 19:02:36 GMT

Since there still does not appear to be an option to convert labels to annotation, what's the workaround to labeling when you have a ton of overlap. I cannot migrate to AP without this feature or some other solution that allows me to better place overlapping labels in my maps.

Hi Adriana,

At Pro 2.0 we added the ability to convert labels to annotation

Convert labels to annotation—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop

At Pro 2.1 we're adding the ability to edit that annotation with the new edit annotation tool.

thanks

Wendy

I had a similar problem. Ended up searching for the document on Google. I noticed that it's the same link Wendy posted, but the only way it works for me is by copying it to the clipboard, then pasting in the search bar. If you simply click on the link provided, you see an error message.

Wendy, thanks for the help. This is very helpful!
