Hi, We've improved this in ArcGIS Pro and cut down the number of clicks considerably.  Open up the Label class pane, go to the symbol tab and expand the halo expander.  Everything you need is there.  Best part is if you choose the wrong colour you're already there and can change it without going through the whole ok ok ok button click out like before. -Wendy   ...

It's possible to offset labels from features using a leader line in both ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro.  The documentation referenced below is for ArcGIS Pro. -Wendy offsetting point labels https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/offset-point-labels.htm offsetting line labels https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/offset-line-labels.htm offsetting polygon labels https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/offset-labels-from-polygon-boundaries.htm leader lines changing how labels are displayed https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/change-how-labels-are-displayed.htm adding leader line https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/layer-properties/text-symbols.htm     ...

The solution to this in both ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro is to convert the labels to annotation - either in a database or in a map as graphics. Convert labels to annotation https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/converting-labels-to-annotation.htm In order to maintain a link to the base features you will need to convert to feature-linked annotation. -Wendy ...

When troubleshooting your labeling settings there are tools you can use View unplaced labels - place the labels on map and visually see why they don't fit.  If a label isn't placed when this button is clicked, the label engine isn't trying to place it.  Look at the visibility range and the sql query on the label class to see why the label isn't being placed. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/labeling-basics.htm Label summary - identifies potential problems with labeling parameters https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/label-summary.htm -Wendy ...

@wilwaters @AlderMaps @KeithAddison1  Hi all, Leader lines should not cross like this.  With each release we include improvements to the Maplex label engine.  If you see this issue with crossing leader lines, please contact support with the data and we can look into resolving it. https://support.esri.com/en/contact-tech-support thanks Wendy ...

Hi Kevin, Not interactive, but the documentation does include images for the parameters.  For example the Weights doc has a before and after scenario to show the setting https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/weight-labels-and-features.htm Other help topics show the different settings in real life scenarios.  See the Offset topic below https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/text/offset-line-labels.htm Hope this helps -Wendy   ...
