Text Boxes nearby Graphical Objects

If the designer has decided not to include nearby text as part of a symbol, then there are parameters in the Group configuration that enable areas based on the symbol’s extents to be used to define which nearby text will be related to the graphical symbol. The IncludeArea parameter directs the Gateway to also include other objects whose position falls within an area defined by the positions of the grouped objects. For example, <IncludeArea AllDirections="1" /> will include all objects which are within the X and Y extents of the graphics of each of the objects in the group, so if a greater area needs to be searched for nearby text this parameter can be increased, for example, by 10% if set to 1.1. If the designer has been consistent in adding text to say the right of each symbol, then you can restrict the search area accordingly, by using ‘right=2.0’ which extends the search box to the right.
