Editing a Label

Once a label has been created it can be edited.

To select the label, there are two options.  The first is simply click on the label on the map.  The second is to select the label from the object list.  Both will perform the same basic task, with the exception that when you select a label from the list, the map will pan to the label in question.

Once selected, the editor panel above will be shown, and also the label will switch to an editable mode.
