Hi,
I've currently updated ORD from 10.08.00.88 to 10.09.00.91 and now the Place Label tool is no longer displaying the correct element properties from the model using a text favorite. It doesn't make a difference if I use the Bentley text favorite included with the install, or one of my own.
The place label tool now always just displays the same information that was used when creating the text favorite as seen in Image 1 (all the nodes and pipes are just labeling with what was used to create the text favorite instead of the correct properties from the model).
After the label is placed, I can edit the text, right click on the field, and choose "Reassign Field" which seems to update the label using the correct property as seen in Image 2. (I have to select each label and update them all individually this way)
I should note that this is happening for all elements, not just SU Pipes & Nodes etc.
Does anyone know why the Place label tool no longer uses the text favorite to correctly label the properties of an element? Perhaps there is a setting that got tweaked when I updated the software?
Thanks in advance!

I don't see any changes to either text favorites or place label tool in the 10.00.09.91 version other than the introduction of a new key-in PLACELABEL TOOL OPEN that has been added for Place Label tool:

Is any of your colleagues also having this problem or is it just one workstation?
Ok, so it appears that if you set the text favorite to take the elevation from "Profile Elevation" (under Vertical in Plan) instead of "Point Z" then it allows you to place the label with the correct elevation. However, this "Only" works in a 2D view for OpenRoads entities (does Not Work in 3D view). If you create a copy of the OpenRoads 3D line so it becomes a regular 3D line (or just draw a regular 3D line), then it lets you place the label in a 3D view.
