There is an existing request item open with our development team to allow the option of choosing whether the leader for dimension text would be on or off and the ability to set the default that is currently under investigation for a future release. For the time being, you would have to uncheck that box after placing the dimension and text.

 

While the request item does exist, if you have any additional comments about the behavior that you would like to add, I would suggest providing them at the Feedback Site.

This, please.

(Scripting replies also acceptable.)

Also, other default behaviours.

SO SEVEN AND A HALF YEARS LATER YOU HAVE SHOWN HOW MUCH YOU LISTEN. ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS ADD ONE MORE OPTION.

LINE,  ARC  OR NOTHING BUT THIS WAS TOO HARD WASN'T IT? 

SEVEN  AND  A  HALF  YEARS.

DISGRACEFUL WAY TO TREAT CUSTOMERS.

As you've mentioned I think it is nice to have the choice of the leader visibility in dimension family as well as an instance. 8 Years and counting ...

Hi,

Why don't you choose this option ? so if you move the dimension text it wont show the leader line.

The solution was right there and is perfectly working. thanks for your help.

Yes that can work but only beyond witness line - when I have a smaller detail drawing and many small parts to call out whit a dim. that option not a solution anymore because I am always beyond the witness line. I hope in 2020 there will be a none or nothing option....
