The Labels Panel

The Labels Panel allows you to edit the object labels in a document and assign them to tables

Editing label name

To edit the name of a label, double click on it.

(Note that you cannot rename the 'Default' label that appears at the top of the list)

Changing label color

Click the label color box in the right column to change the color of an existing label. You may choose any color that you like.

Hide or show all objects with label

If you want to hide all objects with a particular label then you can click the eye icon that appears in the left column. If the eye is open then label is visible, click it to hide all objects with this label. If the eye is closed then the label is hidden, click it to show all lablled objects.

If any individual tables have been hidden, making them visible like this will show them. (It overrides any previous hidden state)

Hide or show all labels

Use the eye buttons at the bottom of the panel to hide or show all labels (and so all objects)

The open eye will make all labels visible.

The close eye will make all labels hidden.

Add new Label

Use the Add new label button at the bottom of the panel to add a new label.

If any objects are selected in the current document then the new label will be set on them.

Set object labels

You can set a label for a table by dragging the table onto the label name.

Tables start with the Default label until you assign one.

If the table you're looking for isn't visible, try using the arrow in the tables column to expand the label to show the list of tables

Remember that you can also set the object label using the inspector

Currently fields and other objects that appear in tables can be labeled, but don't appear in the labels panel
