Advanced LabelMark Techniques 43
When you create a new file with a continuous part, the value you enter in the Repeat/Length (or
Repeat/Width for rotated parts) box determines:
The length of the label if printing a banner label.
The center-to-center spacing for terminal block labels.
The maximum length for continuous TLS PC Link parts is 6” (152.4 mm).
Repeat value limits are 0.1” (2.54 mm) minimum to 32” (812.8 mm) maximum.
Set repeat value limits in your user defaults (see Changing User Defaults) or when you create your
file (see Quick Start Guide – Creating a Basic Text Label).
Using the Flip-Flop Feature
The flip-flop feature allows you to transpose text around a flip point. For example 123|456 would flip-flop
to 456|123. You designate the flip point by placing the flip character in a line of text. The feature is useful
for identifying parts that are connected end-to-end. In LabelMark Plus, flip-flop works for text objects and
text blocks.
To perform a flip-flop:
1. Insert the flip character at the point around which you want the flip-flop to occur.
Note: The default flip character is the pipe symbol “|” (found on the “\” key on your keyboard).
See Changing User Defaults to designate a different character.
2. Select the label(s) you want to flip.
3. Select Tools Flip-Flop, and one of these options:
Left to Right – Transposes text to the left of the flip character to the right and vice versa.
