Place labels inside polygon unless it doesn't fit, then place entirely outside

[TylerT]

Hello,

I want to place labels inside polygon unless it doesn't fit, then place entirely outside the polygon.  This https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/place-labels-outside-polygons-when-they-w... help page seems to hit the nail on the head, except my labels refuse to comply.  My labels are still placed within the polygons and in most cases fully overlapping the outside boundaries of the polygons.  I have maplex label engine on.  May place label outside polygon boundary is on.  I have played with feature weights to no avail.  I am using 'regular placement' and 'Horizontal in polygon'.  

Example of issue:

In this case, I need the label completely outside of the read polygon.

Any helpful tips would be appreciated.  

Thank you,

Tyler

It appears as if you set your maximum overrun to zero, it behaves as you are wanting.

Yep, the overrun parameter did the trick.  Thx.
