Leader shapes on a Mac?

I cannot seem to figure out how to change the shape of a leader frame. For example, I want a '1' inside a hexagon, with a line leading to an object. Similar to the leaders you see here

 

Every tutorial and forum I've found lead me to the Tool Palette or MLEADERSTYLE, but on the Mac version, the same features just don't seem to be there.

 

If the feature is unavailable for Mac, how would you recommend doing it? Drawing a hexagon and adding the text manually?

 

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

MLEADERSTYLE is available in Mac version, it is here:2016-12-13_23-27-21.png

 

 

 

 

 

And you can adjust everything in this dialog. To add new Mleader Style use '+" button, to edit existing style use "gear" menu:

If you already have MLEADRER in your drawing, you can adjust everything by selecting it and editing its properties in Properties palette:

OK--I see where I was going wrong. Under Multileader Style Manager > Content > Type, I had chosen MText instead of Block.
