Maximum Number of Labels Displayed in a Drawing

If the framing contains a lot of pieces which are near each other and have the same label, you can limit the number of labels displayed in the drawing. Labels are added for all pieces, but when the maximum number of labels is reached, any further labels are added on a hidden layer. You can set the maximum number of labels by adding the following keyword in the BDSXX keyword group:

pce_schedule_hide_labels= MAXNUMBER,LEVEL,SHOWMESS

where

MAXNUMBER = Defines the maximum number of labels displayed in the drawing (per identical label), the rest of the labels are hidden.

LEVEL = Defines the layer to which the hidden labels are moved.

SHOWMESS = Defines whether the user is warned about the hidden labels. May have the value 0 (no warning given) or 1 (warning given).

Example:

pce_schedule_hide_labels= 20,101,1

If necessary, you can add a common label for pieces in a certain area e.g. using the text adding function.
