You want me to see the need to be able to move the labels somehow. Okay, the request is duly noted.

What I want you to see is that Accordance offers so much flexibility (even without your requested feature), that you should almost never have to export a map to a graphics program to add your own labels.

Believe it or not, I deliberately left the near-collision between Judah and Philistia so I could show still another way to customize the appearance of the map. Look for that in today's post.
