Hi

I'm looking for a tool to convert all labels of a layer on a specific
zoom to text objects.

I don't want to use EZ-Label or SmartLabel for some reasons.

Anyone know somthing else ?

Hello Antoine,

Will LABELER.MBX not do what you need? It will convert your dynamic
"Mapinfo generated" labels, to text objects allowing you to save them to the
cosmetic, [specified table] or a new table all together.

"This program will transfer your layers labels into permanent text objects,
allow you to label the current selection and allow you to use a label tool
and individually label objects into permanent text objects."

The only option that may affect you is the check box to "include hidden
labels".

Hi

Unfortunatly this tool convert only the labels of objects currently
visible within a map window.

I'm looking for example, setting labels of a street layer on, zooming
to a close level and have all labels converted in text objects
according to this zoom level.

Well using layout concept could be a solution. I'll try it.
