How to change the default Arrowhead List?

Just wondering if it is possible to edit the Arrowhead drop down list that appears in the properties panel for dimensions and leaders.

by Edit; I mean removing some that I never use (not to big of a deal) and Adding in custom ones that I use quite often (what I want).

 

Currently the process of adding the block definition, selecting user arrow, selecting the arrowhead.

I guess I'd just like to avoid the multiple clicking for each time I want a custom arrow within a drawing by having it stored by default within the CAD files. and as a bonus not having to do the additional 3 clicks for selecting the custom arrowheads.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

this list is hardcoded, you can't remove or add items to this list.

I would create a template file with the 2/3/4 dimension styles you need and use either the toolpalettes or design center as the way to import the one you need to the current dwg-file. This is then just one drag and drop and you don't need to click 3 times for creating this every time manually.

I had a feeling it would be hardcoded in. Oh well, would of been nice.

Your Suggestion will be taken up as it's a good alternative solution.

Thank you.
