3. I - place the label text in the component cell instead of a separate label.
   An option is offered to place the content of a user label inside a component cell. An example of this is show below where an instrument tag is to be displayed within a gauge symbol.

4. E - apply the user labels to existing components as well.
   Normal the INCLUDE/EXCLUDE rules only operate on NEW type component, those that are listed on the BOM and existing component are not included in the basic selection set used for user labels. You can however force them to be included by adding an E to the flags field.
   
   
   
   
5. - - Any hyphen in the label text will be interpreted as a line break.
   This indicates the label routines to interpret hyphens in the label text portion as a text separator. The text part can then either be distributed among different field in the label or displayed in a multi line fashion. This is specifically for tags like HV-100 that need to spread over two lines, one with HV, the other with 100.
