Multileader's Arrowhead Placement Seperate from Leader

So the leader in the following picture shows the arrowhead attached to the leader as expected:

ML-Arrowhead-Normal.JPG

 

But when I open a template drawing I have created the same multileader displays as such:

ML-Arrowhead-abnormal.JPG

 

Notice the extremely large gap between the arrowhead and the leader? What is defining this distance?

 

I have tried the ACAD built-in blocks (_open, _origin2, etc.) as the arrowhead and they all display with the gap. What gives? I'm seeing this in C3D 2015, not in C3D 2013.

In the 2nd screen shot, is the linetype used "continuous" ?

Thank you for your question. The Multileader's linetype is set to "By Layer" and the layer's linetype is Continous.

Very strange, can you duplicate the issue by creating an mleader style, in a dwg using the ootb, acad civil imperial NCS .dwt ?

 

Using the above template in I can't seem to replicate the issue here using 2015 SP1.

I've confirmed that only this drawing has this issue. Is there a drawing setting I'm missing?

Posssibly a setting but nothing comes to mind.

If you can post a sample dwg, I'd be willing to see if anything clicks.

Only an mleader style with the issue is needed in the drawing and everything else can be deleted from the dwg.

if this is a custom block for an arrow I would suggest editing the block to make it annotative

I take it the arrowhead is a block...   check the block's units, was it created in feet or unitless etc.  check your drawing units.  Verify the insertion point of the block.

It does appear the OP is possibly using a custom block for the arrowhead.

 

The original post states that 2 of the ACAD built-in blocks (_open, _origin2, etc.) , exhibit the same gap issue in the problem custom template.
