Support defining labels from multiple attributes

[Marc_Graham]

Hi,

Please support using multiple attributes for labels with newline and concatenation capabilities similar to ArcGIS Pro.

Thanks,

Marc

Hi @Marc_Graham,

Thanks for posting this Idea.

For this item, have you considered a LISP approach? For example, you might consider using LISP to select multiple attribute values and then create/relatively position a label for each selection.

For considering a LISP approach here, before incorporating commands, please note that those such as Esri_PickLabel create links between the attributes and the TEXT/MTEXT entities. See additional details here: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-for-autocad/latest/manage/feature-linked-labels.htm

Hi @MichaelDavidsonPM 

Ideally we are after a straight forward approach to making slightly more sophisticated labels that is easy for the end user.

Two common use cases:

• Road labels where the road name and the road type are stored in separate attributes
• Property titles where the Parcel ID and Title description are stored in different attributes

Thanks,

Marc

Hi @Marc_Graham,

While we're not planning in the near or medium term to add a user experience for this functionality, we are considering adding a LISP sample to our repository that will allow for newline and concatenation behaviors.

Not sure if you ever made any headway on that LISP sample for generating labels from multiple attributes but I would also be very interested. Right now we are looking into a service with query layers that have fields that are concatenations of other fields.

Hi @TheRrrr42, thanks for expressing interest in this. We are planning to have this sample in place in the official repo in 2026. I will follow up with you via direct message as well.
