Zusammenfassung:A computer-readable media for performing a method for displaying information in an engineering drawing. Labels are connected to objects in an engineering drawing. The connections are governed by relationships based on calculations simulating particle interactions and collision avoidance. A change in the position of a first label or of the engineering drawing is indicated. A new location of a second label is calculated such that the relationships between the second label and the engineering drawing and between the first and second labels are maintained, and the second label does not overlap other labels or objects in the engineering drawing. The movement of the second label to the new location may be animated.
