Labels

Labels are most commonly added to the CAD file. However, these labels can also be added in Earthwork 4D. There are three different type of labels in Earthwork 4D: Point, Line and Elevation labels.

Point Labels

These are labels attached to a single point. The point may or may not be part of a line. Point labels give descriptive information about a given point such as lot numbers or other relevant information added .

 

Line Labels

These are labels attached to both points and lines. Line labels give descriptive information such as the layer name assigned in the CAD file.

 

Elevation Labels

These are labels attached to points which display the elevation assigned to the point.
