Rearranging all position numbers in the drawing

Hello experts,

 

I remember there being a command that rearranges all position numbers in the view, essentially performing a collision check again. I can't find the setting anymore and am currently unsure if this is even possible without creating the view again.

 

Thank you

You can arrange labels. First select one and place it how you would like to line the labels up. Select the adjusted label and right-click, then choose 'Align labels to reference'.

Next it will ask you the direction you want the labels aligned in. You can choose a beam or other object or just type 'X' or 'Y'.

Lastly, pick the labels that you want lined up with the first label you selected. This can be done individually or inside a window.

Once you've finished selecting the other labels, right-click to accept and they should move to line up with the first label selected along the path you chose.

I am not certain in which version of Advance Steel Autodesk implemented this. You may be able to look through their "What's New" to determine this. 

For more information on using the tool though I did find this.
