LABEL type selection missing after update

engineeringNCMXB — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 21:41:17 GMT

After the last update - I am unable to find the label type selection anymore. The inspector just says 'Nothing Selected'
I typically use the flag type:

Did this selection move somewhere? Is this intentional? Bug?

PS: THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE AN OPTION TO REVERT BACK A VERSION (OR TWO)
ALWAYS

ALWAYS

NO EXCUSES EVER. DO NOT TRY TO EXPLAIN THIS AWAY.

Hi @engineeringNCMXB ,

I hope you're doing well. This is a known issue and it has been brought up to development, it will be fixed shortly.

I will not attempt to explain anything away, I agree with you but it's not me you need to convince :). That's an overarching Fusion conversation that has been brought up time and time again by Fusion users and different ideas have been tossed around to deal with it. Let's see what gets finally decided.

Thanks for the feedback.

Best Regards,

@jorge_garciaI know that you understand.... Eagle was VERY safe on updates because the previous version was never uninstalled. I could always install an update with the peace of mind that nothing was set in stone.

Same with my 20+ years with SolidWorks and 10 years with MasterCam for SolidWorks.

@jorge_garciaIs there a workaround to set label types right now or do I have to wait until it rolls out in an update?

Hey, I discovered a workaround: You can enter "change xref on" in the command line to get the xref-style labels back.

Excellent - thank you for sharing! This is a huge help.

I am now looking for the command to set the size. At the moment, they are all the default value of .07 and I want them to be .05.

Each one being manually right-click--->properties---->.05--->OK isn't great.

You can do the same thing for the size: "change size 0.05"
