Jimmy Tin Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Hi, looking to make a dynamic block with attributed text within a box and a leader line functioning in a similar way to a multileader. I have a limited experience with dynamic blocks and am unable to incoporate the attributes of a multi-leader line into the block. Does any know how I can achieve this?

Dana W Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Go to Multileader Style manager - Modify or New - Content -Multileader Type. The dropdown will allow you to attach a block to the multileader that has modifyable text attributes. You can use one of the predefined choices or create a block of your own to attach to the multileader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Try this lisp. This lisp loads each time I open AutoCAD. I use this routine very often. There are numerous options. (B1B) Draws a 2 point line and encircles the callout number. Adds a dot as the originator. (B2B) Draws a standard leader and encircles the callout number. (B3B) This was added, try it. (BTB) Draws a box around text entities at twice the text height. (C1B) Draws a 3 point curved spline and adds the callout number. (D1B) Draws a 2 point line and encloses the callout number with a polygon. Adds a dot as the originator. (T1B) Draws an ANSI Datum Target to define planes. (BSET) Sets the initial value for incremental numbering. (SET) Set the initial value, whatever you like. All are drawn using the current text style and dimscale on a new Balloon layer.
