I have the drawing and the functions in the civil labels bob start and bob end.
So what I do is select a text favorite referring to data stored in an item type.

I noticed that the label definitions don't work the way I think they work or don't work the way I want them to. (no matter what I do, this function doesn't really do anything)
With Locate along, it always has a starting point and I expect it to move over the line with offset, my goal was to make the offset so large that it ends up at the other end of the line. This doesn't work, it doesn't move even if I make the offset smaller than the line is or make it negative.
Vertices has to be turned off because it ensures that there is something at both ends.

Is there a use selection as reference option? And can the offset function at Locate along work well
