is there a setting that will allow the points to come in - in a certain location?
we just upgraded to 2020 and now my point descriptions are right on the point and i would like them offset so
i do not have to move 500 point descriptions.

ptsetup
Attribute Layout ID: Controls the location of the point number, elevation and description.

thanks but that does not affect how field to finish labels the points
ptsetup only works when you "draw-locate points"

i have tried several layouts and even went into the program more
and changed the point attributes as far as position
it refuses to hold any of the settings
