Hi Alex
First - I love the new labeling - It is all I needed to a label function - now I only need the function to move the labels individually.

So I´m sorry to say, but the tools will not be activated using the method you explain.  And I find no explonations in the manual.
Regards
Lene

Right, in the first dialog you have to turn labels on and pick the
column. Once you have labels on screen and that layer is selected the
other buttons should be usable. In the advanced section there is
Data-Defined labelling, that might need to be activated for the tools
you want to work.

Thanks,
Alex
