Additional Information
In this example the Overrun property was set to allow the labels to overrun the edge of the polygon by 80 points. When that option is turned off, the labels no longer cross over the polygon boundary. The Overrun property is found on the Fitting Strategy tab.Workaround
As a workaround:
- Navigate to Labeling Options under Labeling.
- Switch to Standard Label Engine by unchecking Use Maplex Label Engine.
- Check Only place label inside polygon.
- Switch back to Maplex Label Engine.
- The labels show up within the polygon boundary.
