Due to the Drag state problem I created my base structure label style using
3 line components... a short one near the structure, one that is used as the
text attachment & underline, then the third that connects the first two. By
setting the absolute angles and offsets for the first two lines, then
attaching the connector line to the start/end points, I can quickly create
child styles that only need to have the X offset modified for the Underline
component. In the attached screenshot the label on the right is the base
label, the other 2 are Child styles of that base style, one with an X offset
of -1.0 the other with an X offset of 0.5. Beats trying to get the bands to
do what you want, since they can't.
