Plan View Labeler problem

Is there something unique about the 4th data point (or wherever it hangs up)?  If you try and pick a different element type than whats currently being labeled (i.e. picking line vs. arc) you should get a warning prompt message about clearing the label contents; that message could be off on another screen or minimized and causing the picker to appear to stick.  Have you tried deleting the resource files (*.rsc) from the bin directory? 

Failing all that can you post a short video demonstrating the behavior?

Hi Neil,

 if, after trying Dan's suggestions, you still have problems, please contact Support and have them assist.

I haven't seen this issue before and the Labeler tools have been available for a long time, but there could be something with your specific circumstance that is causing the tool some problems and, if this is the case, Support can document the issue and send development a defect.

Thanks,

The problem is not caused by picking a different type of element as I do get the warning message when I do so. I was going to make a screen recording of the behavior but I couldn't consistently make it occur so the recordings got to be too long. Since we are not on Select I can't call for support. I'll see if I can get the behavior to repeat consistently and post a data set for evaluation.

Here is a file that you can try. Try extracting one of the labels included in the file and start adding new ones where I have placed them. Eventually you should start to see the behavior.

 Here is what I have been doing: With the labeler dialogue open, use the Point button and snap to the end of one of the slope tag cells or a vertex of one of the driveways. Add x,y or station and offset components to the label style and place it. Then move to another element with Accusnap active and snap to an end point or vertex to start and place a new label. Continue until you cannot pick a new snap point. I find the behavior is more prone to occur if the label style has a leader.

I might know what is causing the behavior. I think it occurs if the element selected by accusnap is vague. The corners of the driveways (yellow elements) are most prone to the behavior. Try snapping to the corners of the driveways with Accusnap set to intersection mode and see if you can make it occur.
