Editing labels

You can edit existing labels by clicking on  'Edit Labels' dialog within the Tools menu or under the Labels icon in the toolbar. 

Hiding labels

As you create labels you will quickly find that your area of focus shifts from one label to another. Creating 30 or 50 such labels would rapidly become unmanageable. To solve this you can easily hide certain labels and show others. The settings for the labels are retained even when hidden. You can thus build up a set of frequently used labels with the desired criteria and show or hide them depending on the type of data you wish to examine.

To hide a label, open the 'Edit Labels' dialog from the Tools menu, and simply uncheck the 'Visible' box next to the label you want to hide. Of course you can show it at any time by rechecking the box. At least one label must be visible.

Editing labels

You can edit a specific label by selecting the label and clicking on the 'Edit...' button. This takes you back to label creation page, where you can carry out cosmetic changes, such as editing the label color or name, or even change the definition of the label criteria.

Deleting labels

You may want to delete a label entirely if you are not going to use it again. To do this, just open the 'Edit Labels' dialog, select the label you want to remove, and click on the Delete button.

Re-ordering labels

You can change the order of the labels by selecting a label and clicking 'Move Up' or 'Move Down'.

Exporting and importing labels

You can save an a batch of labels for later use or to share with another user by first selecting any number of existing labels and then clicking on the 'Export...' button.  This will save a file of a .lbl type.  The file should be named something meaningful and saved in a location where you can find it again easily.  Once a the file has been created, it can be re-imported back into the labels by clicking on the 'Import...' button, navigating to the desired .lbl file, and clicking 'Open'.  This will add the labels within the .lbl file to the existing set of labels.

There is no limit to the number of .lbl files that can be saved, and these files can be shared among users of the system.
