Label sits far from what it names
The check drawing/label-adrift, in the group Drawing.
Why it matters
A label far from its element is read as the label of something nearer.
How to fix it
Drag the label next to its element.
Where you see it
The Problems tab lists it under Readability, and outlines the element on the canvas. In a terminal, penstock check --only drawing reports it as LABEL-ADRIFT. Auto layout often fixes it for the whole diagram at once.
