Hi,

What's wrong with Kean's code?

To set the arrow head to some built-in one, using the DIMBLK system variable to "bring" the block in the block table is quite simple (AutoCAD programming with .NET is anything but simple).

If you want to use some arrow head block from your own, simply set the Leader.Dimldrblk property value to the block ObjectId.

nothing wrong with kean code, just wondering if there's another way since that article is 15 years old
