Mleader align

I would like to align my text where the text is on the left how can I keep the text from going to the right side of the leader?

 

Image 1 is before the align command and 2 is after the align command.

I'm not able to reproduce that issue here: can you share that portion of your drawing as a DWG file here?

Could it be a setting in the mleader style that's making it go that direction?

I wonder if it's the justification (we would set it to let here, not right like you have it): or are there manual overrides on those mleaders where they don't match their MLEADERSTYLE settings.

Show me: post that portion of your DWG file (use WBLOCK command to create a separate file).

I think I see your problem if your intent is to align at the leader extension line, correct? It doesn't work like that, never has.

The align tool works on the text only, left justification.

In your sample, see for yourself: select "3/4 adjustable" for one text, and the "3/4" tp" for another, notice where the alignment too place.

 

Might I suggest something? Instead of writing very long single lines of notes and very random hard-returns, you consider assigning a stock width you all the mleader text? Pick a size (start at 15"-18" and respace the notes vertically) plus left justify all of your text so they look more typical, then MleaderAlign's actions won't look so dramatic on the right-side that seems to be of concern to you visually (add a word or two to widen them if needed, for example 3/4" top "something"). Especially since on the right side of your detail you show no interest in aligning the text or dimensions on that side.

Have you tried aligning your text to the left when writing text to mleader? Select part of the text you wish to be aligned and click right mouse button to choose Paragraph Alignment.

Show us your work, post an actual DWG file with the problem and put notes in there on how you'd like the final result to be.

The drawing file is in the 7th message. All my MLEADER is to the left of the drawing not to the right side.

I saw that, but it doesn't add any more infrmation than it did when I replied in message #8 (which you never responded to) https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-lt-forum/mleader-align/m-p/7635181#M161428

Was there something you did not understand in my reply? Or are you still hoping I got it wrong and there is another fix?

Explain please.
