Default Connector: Coercing Label Text To A Certain Location?

Just your basic flow chart.

When I have a diamond-shaped decision box, two "Dynamic
Connector" arrows come out of it: typically "Yes" and "No".

The "Yes" and "No" text wants to position itself in the middle of
the connector.

Is there any way that I can coerce it to a position close to the
decision box?

you might consider checking out the text tool in the toolbar for moving the
text.

Per Al Edlund:

Did I note a touch of sarcasm there? -)

But thanks - it got me going back to it.

It's actually not the Text Tool, but another one that hides
underneath called "Text Block Tool" - and it's not just
drag-and-drop, the little double-box icon has tb active before
the text is clicked on.

Works like a charm now.

Thanks again.
