    Unhappy Odd behavior in dynamic block

    Hi gang,

    I've got this dynamic block and it's not working properly. I'm stumped as to why.

    Its a callout tag meant to be used with an enlargement bubble like so:



    So...

    • You can stretch the circle/text to lengthen the "landing"
    • You can rotate the entire leader in increments of 90 degrees
    • You can position the angled bit of the leader (either 0, 45 or -45 degrees)


    Now, all of that works perfectly until you do this, in this order:

    Grab the rotate grip and rotate the leader (angle does not mater as long as it changes from the default):


    Then stretch the circle/text to lengthen the "Landing" (distance does not matter as long as it changes from the default):


    Then try to rotate the leader again



    At this point the 4 angles you are limited to have changed. You can see that the "tick" marks that show you your choices are no longer orthogonal. In fact, they continue to change depending on how far you stretch the circle/text.

    My goal of course is to have the only options for rotating this to be the 4 cardinal directions.

    Block is included and any help is, as always, greatly appreciated.

    Signed,

    Questioning in Queens.
