Therefore, three new editing tools to manipulate text labels are now in the QGIS developer version:
the move label tool drags text labels to a new position the rotate label tool is for interactive rotation of labels the label property tools opens a dialog that lets the user manipulate the data defined properties of a label (and also the text of the label attribute) All three tools work on the new labeling engine and data defined labeling needs to be enabled for the layer (e.
