Space between Text & leader (bounding)

[jeremiah.bowles]

I am having a problem creating a legend. I place text but there is a huge gap between the text and the arrow. AutoCAD has a variable that gives this spacing but unable to find anything anywhere that identifies what this parameter is so I can change it.

Anyone have any Ideas?

As far as I know, unfortunately, there is no option to control the space between the text and leader.

Welcome to the world of Revit.

It does some great things and then lets you down by not being able to do a simple thing like that.

My method is to make the leaders a bit longer than I would really like them to be. That way the ratio of the gap and the leader is small and it does not look so bad.

I'm not sure that I am conveying myself properly. See attached image.
I'm not sure if it is because I am working in a legend or what but I am trying to Annotate a wall to have Gyp board but the space around the "Left" justified text doesn't make any sense. I've seen the template from WATG and it works fine.

Any new thoughts? - I am using text (not sure how to use tags)

Are you using text or a tag?

[jeremiah.bowles]

Using text, not tags. Tags work fine but Text doesn't.

Sorry, guess I should have read your previous post better. Not sure what the deal is right off and haven't had this problem myself. Can you post the file?
