Consistant Multileaders

Does relative coordinate entry work for multileaders? I would like to keep all of my leaders consistent and neat but other than using ost I cannot figure out a way to make them all line up. I would like to use coordinate entry if I could, maybe I am doing things in the wrong order???? Are there any ideas??

I'm on 2010

Thanks,

Use OTRACK with running OSNAPS, or turn SNAP on and set to a value that will work, or place an xline to align to, or place first and use the mleaderalign command. You can use point filters but otrack is quicker.

otrack with running osnaps=ost, in my first post

What i wouold like to do is when I start a multileader I select my first ppoint, then for my second point I want it to be a half an inch from my first point but @.5"

I do like the mleaderalign command though and I will play with that some more, thank you for the suggestion.

I agree with rkent, MLEADERALIGN sounds like the way to go, create them on the fly first, then clean them up.

Edit the mleader style to have a 1/2" landing.

Ok, I figured it out. So I guess multileaders do recognize relative coordinate entry. They just will not recognize the inches (")symbol. So to make it work first invoke the multileader command, click on your first point, then type the @ symbol, then your distance (.5), then the direction(

It's that easy.

Thanks for the replies.

The inch mark will be recognized if you have architecture or engineering set in units, but no need to include them as you found out.

You are correct. yesterday when I was trying to figure it out I was using > instead of
