Cannot delete Multileader

[joe_kohli]

Why when I try to delete one of the multileaders that I created, it shows the "delete" in grey?

DELETE is greyed out when the object is in use in the files somewhere. All instances have to be gone first.

This is a MultileaderSTYLE (not a multileader reference object).

A: Because this style is in use!

Start PURGE, jumpt to the second non-purgable tab, select your mleaderstyler and check out where it is in use.

or share youre .dwg and we can help you

Ok thank you! I was able to delete them now. Ok, now my next question is why my leader body and text are not changing when I select layer "block". The ellipsoidal arrowhead block is on layer "TEXT" in yellow. Why is this not changing the leader body and text to match the block?

EXPLODE all of these elements then find out what is behind them all.

I'm not sure I completely understand what I am looking for after I explode the leader.

It's easy to explain,

but while you are not familiar with the basics, it would be senseful to talk about a SAMPLE,

one sample we can all see and check = One dwg with just the sample inside.

Until you share facts (.dwg): I think the block content is not drawn on Layer0 or Color bylayer or byblock.

I figured it out. I changed the layer to the default 0 (layer 1) and it fixed the issue.
