    Default Multileader settings

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hey guys-
    Everytime I fire up a new dwg I have to go to multileader style & tweak the settings for each multileader to match the dwg scale... arrowhead size, leader break size, text height, etc. Is there a command that controls the multileader settings so that I can just punch in the dwg scale & it will adjust these settings accordingly?

    Am I the only person who'd like to easily control these settings?

    Your settings should be a percentage of your scale (eg. Textsize 0.1 x Scale).

    Right, thanks for the input. But, is there some type of "master" command that will handle them in one shot as to avoid having to key in all of them?

    Instead of starting a new post I'll add to my existing post. How do you control the gap between the first & it's underline?? It's currently putting NO gap between the first line of text & the underline.

    Set your mleader styles to be annotative. When you set an annoscale it will adjust accordingly.

    Thanks for the reply rkent.

    Here's what I'm seeing on screen... (hope the screen shot works)

    It is currently set to annotative, but I cannot figure out how to adjust the spacing between the top line of text & it's underline.
