Thank you, it's much better. Is there any way to break off this "C2M...=" and leave the value alone?

Not automatically... But you can rename the scalar field (with Edit > Scalar fields > Rename) to have it much shorter.

Thanks, works great! Next question: is it possible to stick point's description to point? When I move view, location of descriptions is changing, it's burdensome when I have longer object to describe and then render to file... Example:
Descriptions flew away when I changed view to move forward.

So maybe a simpler way to do what you want to achieve is to switch from the display of a 2D label to a simple 'legend'.

Just uncheck the 'Show 2D label' option and check instead the 'Show legend(s)' option.

This option looks promising. Is it possible to insert value from scalar field instead point's name?

Ah no, sorry I forgot about this need! Only the label name appears this way...
