I'm trying to create a truncated spot elevation that can be dragged and keep the background mask, any suggestions on how to do this? So far I have the expressions below in the drawing:
{Surface Elevation}-100*TRUNC({Surface Elevation}/100)
IF({Short Elevation}<10,0.1/12,0)
The expressions do not seem to be working when they are dragged. I've attached a couple pictures. I would also like the leading zero to work to get both elevations of 01.99 and 99.00.
As far as the Background Mask goes. On the Dragged State tab you have to select Staked Text and set the Background Mask field to True.

That is what I currently have, see attached image. However, this then puts the leading zero on the bottom of the label when it needs to be in front of the truncated spot elevation.
Can you share a drawing with that Label Style in it? There's a lot of things to look at when trying to figure something like this out.

You can it set to Stacked text in the drag mode. That will stack the components separately. You could set it to As Composed but I don't think you'll like the results either as it doesn't switch the attachement of the leader when dragged left or right.
I suggest rewriting the Zero expression to be IF({Short Elevation}<10,0,-1) Use this as part of a single text component within the label style. When you add it to the text component set it to not display negative values. This will make it display 0 when Short Elevation is less than 10 and nothing when its 10 or more. The single text component will stay together when the drag more is set to stacked text.
Here is what that does.
This worked perfectly, thank you.
I've attached an image for future reference.
