Select Non Planting Labels from the Filter by menu...
The top list box in the dialog lists each different item that has been selected. The number of labels for that item is quantified in brackets after the items name. Note that it is the number of labels indicated not the calculation of the items.
4. Select Label(s) to alter
The selected labels list displays only Non Planting Labels...

Change details as required for associated specification information or user data and notes. Note that users are able to select multiple records for editing.
If different values have been assigned to fields when more than one label is selected, the entry "(Multiple)" is displayed accordingly.
Note that applying changes to fields when multiple selections have been made, will result in ALL SELECTED labels being edited accordingly.
The Labels area is divided into 'Header' and 'Details' and users are able to define what information is displayed in either section and whether or not each is displayed (shown).

Header and Details are defined from a combination of 'expressions' and 'free text'. A pop-down list offers pre-defined options for Header and Detail items and users are able to manually edit Label Templates using defined expressions as required.
Label Headers are stacked above Item Details and can be applied for both single species planting labels or for planting mixes (comprising a mix name and associated planting components, specifications and percentages).
5. Edit the fields
Change the field values to the ones required and then click the Apply button to save the changes.
Pick Apply to commit changes to the selected label(s).
Notes
Some fields directly effect the appearance of the label...
