I've been trying to figure out how to stop the labels from moving when dragging the map with the cursor.

here is what happens

Is it possible to prevent this from happening? I am new to QGIS and don't really know what to try to fix this.

    Please provide your current label settings, as well as a description of how you expect the labels to behave.

  • In Labels tab in Layer Styling (F7), open the Placement tab.

  • Click the Settings button below Label Anchoring.

  • Select Use Entire Line for Clipping and Strict for Placement Behavior.

    Another option would be to use the datadefined attributes to set the x and y, but that should be functionnally similar.
