"move label" mouse mode broken (or non-obvious)

[rjr27@…]

I can't get "Move label" under the Right Mouse tab to work. The only way I found to move a label was to specify the label from the command line and test different values for the offset parameters.

Hi Randy, the documentation explains that this is for moving 2D labels only.

Hi Elaine,

Thanks for all the quick replies!

On this one, the fact that a button called “Move label” appears just to the right of one simply called “Label"  leads one to automatically draw the conclusion that they’re talking about the same kind of label (even if the tooltip that eventually appears mentions “2D”).  Even Tristan Croll in the lab expected this to be a way to move the 3D label!  I have no idea how hard it would be to make this work on both kinds of labels, but it could be a source of confusion for novice users.

Best wishes,

Randy

You’re right that it’s confusing (and most people won’t get all the way to the documentation).  Probably should be renamed “move 2dlabels” or something like that, unless we plan to make it work for the 3D labels too.

Fixed.

Made move label mouse mode move both 3d labels and 2d labels.
