You can use bubble labels to identify objects in a drawing view by the Item Numbers shown in a report view. The drawing view style must identify a bubble label for the objects you want labeled with the Item Numbers. The filter in the following view style example looks for Structure objects and applies the HngSup Side_Reference_Circle_CA_L bubble label:

The drawing document must have a drawing view that is associated to a report view. The bubble label looks for the Item Number field in the report to label the objects in the associated drawing view. For example, you can use the delivered HgrSup3View package to create drawings that use a bubble label to identify the part of a support object. The Item Numbers for each support part are listed in the report shown on the drawing.

The bubble labels applied to the drawing view are generated from the Item Number values in the report.

You can also place bubble labels manually using the Manual Place Label command when a drawing is open in SmartSketch Drawing Editor. You must still have a drawing view associated to a report before using the bubble label. For more information on placing manual labels, see Place a Manual Label on a Drawing in the Orthographic Drawings User's Guide, available from Help > Printable Guides.

Label XML definition is discussed further in the Intergraph Smart 3D Programmer's Guide under Label Templates and Rules (XML) > XML Tag Reference. When creating new bubble labels, see <content> XML tag definitions to find the value of the DrawingReferenceLabelContent attribute. Contact your administrator or Intergraph Support if you require the Intergraph Smart 3D Programmer's Guide. You can find support information on our web site http://support.intergraph.com.
