      I am trying to find the parameter that stores the setting for connection reference of the pointer to the text.
      It seems it is only available for the auto text label, and I can’t reverse engineer the autotext label as it is not an object..
      I have scripted my own text label that reads particular parameters from objects and has stretchy text just like the auto text.
      So I would like (if possible) to be able to control the pointer location to the first or last line of the text, rather than just the top or bottom of the text box that we can get now.

      Is this an available parameter that isn’t in the GDL manual?

      No, GDL doesn’t know about this setting.

      Shame, it would be handy.
