Mleader with block: how to control on which side the leader attaches to?

[Buzz0m]

Hi,

I have to annotate drawings using two languages. I have to use mleaders or mleader like objects to create the annotations in such a way that one of the languages is above the mleader horizontal line and the other language is below it. I have been able to achieve this by using a custom block (two multiline attributes) in the mleader but the mleader always attaches to the right side of the block.

I have a less elegant solution with a dynamic block but I need to be able to use multiple leaders and that I don't think can be done with dynamic blocks elegantly.

Is there some setting I'm missing in the mleader object? The only attachment options are "insertion" and "center extents".

Perhaps there is another way of achieving what I'm looking for?

IN the first pic the upper mleader needs to be corrected (the attachment point of the block) and the lower one is nice and dandy.

Post your DWG file with the block and your attempts please.

Hi,

the attached file was wblocked out from c3d2020. There might be some scandics in the block attribute definitions. Hope it doesn't mess anything up when opened on non scandic systems.

Hi @Buzz0m 

Try reducing the landing distance of the mleader to "20" and see if that solves the problem.

I fiddled around with that but it doesn't work. Negative values are also not an option =/
