Notes

 

- Items are only shown if the text fits into the part area

- The part sizes (dimensions) text is separate to the part ID text

 

- Offcuts are labelled in the same way as parts - except that for the 'None' option the offcut size is still shown centred.

 

- The edge dimension labels are not affected by the orientation setting: the vertical dimension is labelled at the top-left of each part (in rotated text) and the horizontal dimension at the bottom-right (in normal orientation).

 

- The main part label takes precedence over the dimension labels if there is insufficient space to display both. Similarly, the horizontal dimension label takes precedence over the vertical.

 

- For the 'Along edge' option the part rotation maker (!) is not shown.
