Introduction
This tool will enable the user to custom label the house connections in the drawing.
House connection labels can be set to different positions along the house connection (eg: start, end, midway) and also be set with particular angles relative to the house connection (parallel, perpendicular, etc).
It is envisaged that users will want different Label Styles (containing different house connection data) to be placed at particular locations along the house connection.
An example of house connection labels applied to the start, midsection, and end of the House Connection is shown, below.
