vertical multileader, horizontal / centered text

Hi,

 

I am using AutoCAD 2014.  I'd like to draw a vertical multi-leader with no horizontal landing.  I would like my text to be displayed horizontally so that it is centered over the vertical multi-leader line.  In properties, in the Leader category, I have tried changing Horizontal Landing and Landing Distance.  In the Text category, I have tried changing Attachment type, rotation, and direction.  No matter what I have changed, I have not been able to achieve my desired result.

 

Can anyone tell me how to do this?

 

Thanks in advance,
Paul

If all else fails you might want to consider creating a dynamic block for this.  Your text could be an attribute centered above the line.  And if you want everything to be below instead of above the arrow a simple Flip parameter might do the trick.  Nice thing is you can make it all annotative as well if you like.

 

Dave.

The command offers no such feature.

thank you heinsite and pendean for your help.

 

I've never created a dynamic block before, but this could be a good way to learn.  

 

Thanks again,
Paul

This would be a pretty simple one for you to create too... and a good place to start your dynamic block "career".  Smiley Very Happy

 

Good luck!

Dave.
