AutoCad Leader jagged line

Im trying to have a leader with a jagged line or at least more than one line segment. I can do this in Inventor with no problem but AutoCad doesnt seem to be able to do it.

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are looking for, but if the attached dwg (and png showing where in mleader format dialog box to adjust) in the zip file do what you want, it is indeed a simple thing. If this isn't what you want, can you provide a sketch? This is the only way I know of, so if it isn't what you want, @imadHabash is probably correct.....

You can do this in AutoCAD... use command "QLEADER" then type in "se" for settings and change the number of points to which ever you find desirable... see screenshot below. 

 

If you want to change all leaders of a particular style, use command "MLEADERSTYLE" and you will get a dialog screen where you can adjust the maximum leader points.

Been so long since I used qleader I forgot about that feature....once mleaders came "on scene" I switched & haven't looked back...
