LABEL

This Command labels a Viewport.

Parameters

TEXT
Label Text. This will be converted to upper case unless it is enclosed in quotes. Text containing embedded word separator characters (spaces, commas etc.) should also be enclosed in quotes. A null Label (all spaces) will cause any existing Label to be removed.

Qualifiers

/GRAPHICS
Overrides the default Viewport Display Mode. The Display Mode is setup be default to be TEXT but can be modified via the MODE/VIEWPORT Command. The presence of this Qualifier will cause the GRAPHICS Viewport to be labelled.
/STYLE=<style>
Overrides the default Text Style for the Viewport. The possible Style attributes are BLINK, BOLD, REVERSE and UNDERLINE and they may be specified using the following syntax:-
/STYLE=(BOLD,REVERSE,...)
\

Omitting the attributes will result in normal Text and the parentheses may be omitted if only a single attribute is desired.
/TEXT
Overrides the default Viewport Display Mode. The Display Mode is setup be default to be TEXT but can be modified via the MODE/VIEWPORT Command. The presence of this Qualifier will cause the TEXT Viewport to be labelled.
/VIEWPORT=<id>
Specifies the Viewport which is to be labelled. This defaults to the current Viewport (as defined by the previous VIEWPORT Command) if this Qualifier is absent or has no associated Value. The syntax of the Viewport ID is described in full for the VIEWPORT Command.

Qualifiers may be attached either to the Keyword or to the Viewport ID and thus the following is legal:-

LABEL/TEXT "label Text"/STYLE=BOLD
