Hello, 

I'd like to see this "Placement" option for label features on line features as well on the new Map Viewer. It already exists for point features, to be able to stack and arrange labels so they don't overlap. I noticed this feature is not available when created labels on line features. Thanks

For lines, this is possible in Map Viewer Classic but not as yet in the New Map Viewer.

Click on Create Labels and then select the desired option next to Alignment.

The Classic only allows one label and minimal aligment. I need the exact same customization (multiple labels and XY offset) that exists for points to lines on the new map viewer.

Yes please! It also needs an option for "unwrapping" line labels from the line and just labeling horizontally. The wrapping doesn't work properly with tight bends and with certain line styles readability is bad.
