Hello @amaan.makhani ,

After futher research, SetBackground will not work because it will take any spaces into account.

  1. This is more complicated but you can call ComputeTextExtent to get the text size (w/o padding) and insert your own background.

This background will be render in 3D space. If your text is 2D, then you will need to recalculate your background.

Below is a simple sample on ComputeTextExtent

HPS - ComputeTextExtent example

  1. You can insert your text with a offset to your symbol/marker.

    HPS have a option to add a leader line to your text box so your text does not have to be the same position as your symbol.

    Please see documentation below for sample.

Best Regards,
Simon
