Autoflip Line Movement vs Square Movement in Callout Block

I created a callout block with an autoflip. When I move the line, the autoflip works perfectly, but when I move the square, it doesn't.

When I move the square from left to right it works every time. When I go right to left is usually doesn't flip immediately. If I just reselect the grip to move the square it will flip and then function properly.

You could strip the leader out of the block, all the parameters and actions, and just use it in a Multileader style. It works every time and has a few added features that way.

See attached.

This doesn't work for me, I need to retain the properties of the block, and with the multileader, I can't.

Hmm, ok, try this new one. It places the multileader inside the block with a couple point parameters and stretch actions to move it around. The attributes are laid on top of it and move with it. I added a Base point at the tip of the leader so it won't have some weird grip hanging out there after a few moves of the two point grips.

I could not understand this solution, I could not check if it works.

Sorry, I see now that I forgot to upload the drawing with the block I was referring to.

There is a block with just the table lines that is used in the multileader style. This multileader is used within the block. Attributes are placed to appear inside the cells in the table. One point parameter and move action moves the table part of the multileader and the attributes and the other moves the leader tip.
