MAP 418 - Aligning Text Labels To Markers

Accuracy is as important as style when it comes to making maps. In XPression Maps, markers can be added to Text Objects to properly identify the Longitude and latitude of a location on the map. Unfortunately, there are situations were placing two or more labels on locations that are juxtaposed can cause a collision of the text labels. While it is possible to drag the text label around to the other side of the marker, it can become poorly aligned to the marker. With enough text labels on a map, that can become pretty sloppy.

XPression Maps 3.4 introduces a new feature that Aligns the Marker property with the Label Align property to deliver a consistent spacing while keeping the marker position accurate.
