    Unhappy Modifying the label style/ dragged state/ Leader/ line weight

    I've set up my label style/ dragged state/ Leader/ line weight to .2mm, But it did not change my leader width to the line weight I specified, I then modified the Edit label styles default to the same properties and set to override. It still does not seems to not reflect the properties I set? Any ideas as to where else I should be setting the weights for leaders in a dragged state?

    did you toggle on the display line weight option?

    it works for me

    Let me rephrase... The weight changes to the lable style are not reflected in the Pot Preview window... I don't really care how the lines view on the screen, only how they plot onto the paper. But thanks for the idea though...

    How about this question... Is there a way to set the plot style line weigth for the leader seperatly form the plot style to the txt?
    I think the layer plot style should be driving the txt and the leader but it seems the leader is still too thick.

    do an override, and set the line weight to be by object for the dragged state leader(s)

    this could also be an issue within your CTB/STB file

    Its an STB DWG... And when you say set the line weight to by object do you mean "by block"?

    no I mean by object...
    one has three(3) options
    By Layer
    By Block
    or by setting a weight on the object itself....

    I just made them 'green' to match the other leaders on the layer wl-25so

    nothing tricky
    they look fine to me here

    Yes, you made them green, but the plot weight is still too thick if you do a print preview...

    now I've changed the weight to match that layer.. 0.20 because that layer was using a different weight

    Yes, but did you do a plot preview? Changing the line weight does not make it plot lighter...
