#SAIL
Hi , I upgraded our Dev env to Appian 7.5 and then understood that the default label position of all SAIL components is now "ABOVE". We have many SAIL forms in different applications and adding labelPosition: "ADJACENT" is going to take lot of time and effort. I want to know if there is any property I can set on server to make default label positions "ADJACENT" ?
Thanks,
Rajat...

The defaults are not configurable and there's no supported approach to change them. If you need to use a different label position you need to explicitly add the label position in your SAIL definition.
If you are using wrappers (just like what the Appian Common Objects App does) instead of the native functions to create the components then you could simply modify the default behavior of your wrapper expression.
Keep in mind that ABOVE has more benefits: Eye tracking studies show it's less taxing and i's also better for longer labels.

Thanks Edurado ! I understand what you are trying to tell here. However at times the business users just want how they are used to or feel comfortable working with. For such application we will have to put efforts to make the label position changes.

Agree, for those cases Appian offers the labelposition field. This change doesn't prevent you from using your own preference but requires you to explicitly provide the labelposition to avoid using the default.
