Hi,

Just wondering if there is any way to change the placement position of
the node labels (e.g., bootstrap values). It would be great if these
would appear above the branch leading to a node, rather than to the
right of the node (where they are often obscured by taxon labels).

Thanks for a great program!

Cheers,
JWFetz

Use Branch label.

Ahhhh. Many thanks! I did not realize that the bootstrap values
showed up under both node labels and branch labels. Appreciate it.

Cheers,

No Problem.  Though I find that it is a little too far away from the node so I export to .svg and use illustrator or inkscape to move the BS labels.
