Multileader Line Width

josanchez6AQGD — Wed, 27 Jan 2021 19:55:20 GMT

Does anyone know how to get the leader linetype in a multileader to be wider? I understand that I can change the lineweight and toggle it on and off but I wanted it to be wider. I am looking for an option like plinewid for the leader linetype. I just don't know how to apply something like that to the linetype. Maybe creating a custom linetype? Any help is appreciated.

That's the only option available to you, LWEIGHT settings.

Hi @josanchez6AQGD

Any reason for not using Lineweight? The easier way would be to use Lineweight, but you can also create a dynamic block using the Pline similar to multileader. It would be easier to create a dynamic block if the multileader is of a simple type 🙂

I agree, lineweight either by color or layer would do it.

Make a Custom Multi-Leader Style where each individual style has its own line weight.

Hello, so how can I change the line width when using ML block like hexagons (not Mtext)?

Hi @PaulineP54QC

Have you tried CLASSICINSERT command to edit the block?

Enter CLASSICINSERT on command line.
Click name dropdown and choose the hex block then insert the block.
Select the newly inserted block=>right click=>open in block editor. (You can delete this inserted block later.)
In the block editor change (edit) the lineweight. Close the block editor making sure to save your changes during close.
