I'm trying to place multiple labels at a regular spacing within a polygon.  This is for a large polygon area and i need to place a label even spaced at 5000m (north/south and east/west).  Perhaps the workflow is to collapse to evenly spaced points which can then be labled.

Hi,

 

 

Just an idea, create a grid based on the distances you mention and grab the point that fall in each polygon to be labeled.

Hi,

 

 

I agree with Itay on creating grid. The 2DGridAccumulator can be used to create grid points in the bounding box of the input geometry. Then, you can use the SpatialFilter to select points inside of the original polygon, and transform them to text features (labels) with the TextAdder.
