Is it possible to change the wall tag leader to have a thickened end type leader, like a straight tick mark?

Yes, there's an arrowhead type called "Heavy end tick mark" which you can customize the length and line width.

James, thanks that worked.

Do you know if its also possible to change leader so that the tick itself extends to cross the entire wall? Currently the tick will start from about the center of the wall and only covers one side of the wall which is acceptable but we normally show the thickened end mark crossing the entire wall that its tagging, it would be "nice" to display it this way as we have always done it but if not possible I can live with that.

Not really, unless you make it longer and change it to Free End so you can reposition it yourself? Watch out for Thin Lines...these go thin too...

OK, using Free End will do what I ask but since that requires more work I'll live with having it point to the center of wall. Appreciate the advice!
