Hi,

as you can see in the screenshot below the labels of the collar points are very offset from the actual location. What are possible reasons and how can I avoid this? It's very confusing.


Kind regards,

Chris

    Hi @ChristianHofmann and @JosephMillard,

    You might double check the settings you've set up in your display text. Click on your Collar file in your Shape List, then navigate to your Properties Panel and select 'Format Display Text'. Adding spaces in front of the text object will offset your labels.

    *Hot tip* Pressing 'Enter' below your label will move your label upwards. You can check out how this works in this video: Offsetting borehole IDs for improved readability in Leapfrog

    Hi Sean, following your instructions just moves the holeI_Ds up or down. The issue is the distance of the offset of the ID from the collar point. As shown in the original post. is there a way to shift the hole_IDs closer to the collar?

    Cheers

    Hi Everyone,

    If you have checked for spaces in the Format Display Text box, and there are no spaces before the Hole ID then you may have a different problem.

    The offset of the Hole ID from the collar is sometimes caused by the geographical footprint or extent of your data. Very large data extents will sometimes force the Hole ID to display away from the collar. One way to get around this is to display the drillhole trace and label the top of the trace instead of labeling the Collar point.

    Cheers,

    Steph
