Multileaders and Hatch Boundaries


CyberAngel

Recommended Posts

In AutoCAD 2008 I couldn't put multileaders in hatched areas. When I added the multileader to the hatch objects, the hatch disappeared in a triangle defined by the text width and the arrowhead. Useless.

 

In AutoCAD 2011 I can't put multileaders in hatched areas, but for a different reason. With a Circle block for content, the hatch uses the circle as a boundary, which is okay, but then it uses the text inside as another boundary. The text itself becomes hatched! Still useless.

 

I can give a background mask to a text multileader, why not a block multileader?

Change your Island Detection to Outer.

 

The Island Detection is set to Outer. For some reason the Island Detection checkbox is on but greyed out.

 

I put a wipeout inside the circle block. That seems to have solved the problem, as far as I can tell. Not useless but klugey.

That's weird. it shouldn't be greyed out with a check in there and it should be working. :cry: I tested mine and it worked, but I don't know what to suggest now.

 

Somebody will come up with it soon, I hope.
