I am currently erasing a lot of of extra index contour labels (the labels are large since it is a large scale drawing) I have lots of small index contours that form small closed loops (The TIN is LiDAR generated, so I have lots of these). Each contour gets a one label no matter what the label spacing is. See Screenshot
An option to have a minimum length to have a contour be labeled would be nice, whether is user inputted, or hard coded to some factor of the label size.
TIA

I too am having the same problem. It is a lot of work to make a decent looking contour map using existing data. I am also (Dare I say it .....) an Eagle Point / AutoCAD user. A handy tool that EP does not auto label contours, you have to do it manually. It goes fairly fast, just activate the tool and drag the line across the contour where you want the label to be. I like this, because it allows you to control the placement of the label and they don't end up in undesirable locations. It would be nice to have a little more versatility.
Dan,
I created an enhancement request for this.
