<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-NZ style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>As with most drawing packages, it seems that one
needs to have the final presentation scale in mind when placing text labels
within scraps. Change the output scale up or down, and the labels either
move very far away from the drawing, or overlap and over power the drawing.
This is a shame because most of the other features are fairly scale independent.
I can use the scale and basescale commands, and <left> and <br> etc
to counteract this to some extent.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-NZ style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Is there a way to place a text label, say ON a pitch
line, and tell therion, label this pitch “10 P” and left justify the
text it out to the right-hand side, just beyond the displayed passage wall, so
that it always displays just clear of the drawing?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-NZ style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Also I notice that text with orientation 0 degrees
prints at an angle equal to the declination, which is 22 degrees here abouts
these days. Is there a better way to straighten the text than give it all
an orientation of 338 degrees to compensate?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-NZ style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>If I want to present two maps, say one at 1:500
scale, and one at 1:2000 scale, I would want many labels on the former and few
labels on the latter. Can this be done with one set of scraps, or would I
have to create duplicates and adjust the labels in one of the sets?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
