The reason is that spanning labels only span across split created vertices and not natural vertices. Polylines/lines always have natural vertices- there is no such thing as a split created vertex along a pline.

I wouldn't think so but had to ask! Will the labels “span” on lines/polylines since it is now one label style for lines & parcels? I wouldn’t think so but had to ask!

BTW the labeling polylines with a tag table feature is awsome. Thanks. Forgive my ignorance, what exactly are multiline attributes and do they have any thing to do with label spanning?

Pinch me. Ok, now I’m completely jazzed.

There are times when a parcel label is a problem, but if you could label the area from a polyline, that would be nice to see? Can you label area of a polyline that technique or just lines and curves.

And look for some stuff regarding surfaces in the future, not JUST with surface simplification. Chuck - I know. To be honest, I'm ready for everyone to be able to talk about it and remove the confusion surrounding who can and can't... JG – dunno if that’s fixed or not, I never really tested it.
