Creating alignment label which takes values from 2 other alignments

[Anonymous]

Hello

I'm trying to figure out how to label this horizontal alignment But i want to take the values from the intersections drawn on the picture (red circles). I tried to use reference alignments but i did not manage to succeed. 

Any ideas?

Thanks

I got it to work using Reference text. On the Layout tab of the label style composer I have the Text Component, StaOff. The contents are the Sta Off of the main alignment - the one you pick when initiating the label command. I added another Reference Text component using sta off (of the reference alignment) as the data to be labeled. When I added the label it first wanted an alignment (for Text Component), then a point. It labeled the sta off for the alignment I selected and put ??? for the Reference Text component. The command was still active and when I picked the intersection alignment ??? changed to the sta off of the second alignment.

Thanks for the help!

Still having an issue with stacked labels, posting the picture to clarify

How can i get rid of the labels in the right and one of each on the left?

I made one label instead of 2 now, but is there any chance to hide start station value by default?

If you want to hide individual labels in a label set, like in an alignment or profile band label set, select the labels you want to hide while holding down the Ctrl key. Then in the Properties dialog turn Visibility to False.
