I don't know if this already exists in AutoCAD. The idea I have is to convert non-associative leaders in drawings to associative leaders.


Thank you,

Hi Brad

Check out the Express Tools command ._QLAttach

PullDownMenu: Express -> Dimension -> Leader Tools -> Attach Leader to Annotation

That is only for adding text to it correct? Please open my sample and you will see what I am talking about.

Are you trying to convert the polyline into a leader?

Yes! Who ever set up CAD this used a polyline leader.

They probably used a Qleader and not a REAL leader
thus making it appear that it is made from polyline segments
with a seperate arrowhead block as well.
I pretty much undefine the Qleader command in my world to
discourage it's use entirely.

No. Qleaders show up as leaders, not polylines.

Hi

Therefore your Wish List Item would need to be suitably revised to take into account the conversion of Polyline Leaders to actual Leader Objects.

Have a good one, Mike
