Enabling the Street Placement style

  1. Enable the Maplex Label Engine.
  2. Click the Label Manager button Label Manager on the Labeling toolbar.
  3. Check the box next to the layer you want to label.
  4. Choose a label class under the layer.
  5. Choose Street Placement from the line label placement style drop-down list.
  6. The label position can change when you choose the Street Placement style. This is because there are four placement positions for street features: Centered Curved, Offset Curved, Centered Straight, and Offset Straight.

  7. Optionally, click Position, choose a different label placement position for your street features, then click OK.
  8. Click OK to close all dialog boxes.
Tip:
You can also use the Labels tab on the Layer Properties dialog box to set labeling properties.
