Today on the discussion group, a user requested a surface label where the arrow always points downhill. Now, for a single point surface label, this is “automagic,” and doesn’t require any real tricks. And if you use a single line label on a line with three dimensions, it’s pretty simple too, as long as you use one of the default line labels with the Slope components. These have already been setup to rotate the arrow. But a Surface Two Point Slope label? That’s a new one. Make the jump to see how it’s done and grab a drawing with the style built-in.
