Using VB to Arrange Balloons, Need Balloon Arrowhead Point

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know how to find the location of an arrowhead point of a balloon?

We have a VB routine that arranges the balloons around the view but in order to prevent crossing leaders we need to know the arrowhead points for each balloon.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Nole Martin

Balloon.Leader.AllLeafNodes.Item(1).Position
returns a Point2d indicating the leaf node (arrow) position. Note that there
could be several leaf nodes. The line above identifies the first
one.

We are using Inventor 11 and balloon.leader seems to be missing.

Can you tell us what version of inventor this feature exists in?

This feature is new to Inventor 2009. I'm not aware
of any workaround for previous releases. Sorry.
