Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Members

	Name	Description

	MaximumCharacterSpacing	The character spacing may be increased upto this limit.
	MaximumLabelOverrun	Maximum distance that a label is allowed to overrun the end of its feature.
	MaximumWordSpacing	The word spacing may be increased upto this limit.
	MinimumEndOfStreetClearance	Minimum clearance between street label and street end.
	MinimumRepetitionInterval	Interval that must elapse before label is repeated.
	MinimumSizeForLabeling	Specifies a minimum size of a line or area feature for it to be labeled.
	NeverRemoveLabel	Indicates whether to not remove the label if no position is found.
	OffsetAlongLineProperties	The offset along line properties for a layer.
	PointPlacementMethod	Point placement options.
	PointPlacementPriorities	Controls placement of label around point fetaure.
	PolygonBoundaryWeight	Feature Weight for the boundary of the polygon.
	PolygonPlacementMethod	Polygon placement options.
	PreferHorizontalPlacement	Indicates if there is a preference to place the label horizontally.
