Leader Arrowhead blocks

[Anonymous]

Is there any possible way to associate displayable attributes with a leader
arrowhead? Or any other modifiable text with a leader arrowhead?

Thank you for your help,
Edward

Do you mean like the behavior of regular LEADERS with MTEXT?

If so, have you explored the options of the LEADER command?

-->Enter an annotation option [Tolerance/Copy/Block/None/Mtext]

I know about the mtext feature but I want something where the text will be
part of the same object. The mtext creates a separate object.

Is there maybe any way to combine the mtext with the leader object so that
the will act together?

you can put text in a block and use that block as a user arrowhead in a
dimension style
but attributes in that same block will not show up in a dimension arrowhead
the text will show up but will not be editable
so you'd need a different dimstyle for each different text you wanted
displayed inside the dimension arrowhead block
doubt if that's what you're looking for though

Yeah I thought about that, but of course that would cause headaches of its
own.

Thanks for the reply though.

depending on what you're trying to accomplish, you could put some block with
attribute near your arrowhead then group them???
