Variables for QLEADER

[fclao]

Hi guys,

Anyone know which, if there is, are the variables for changing the Settings of Qleader? Especially for changing the Annotation type from MTEXT to BLOCK; and for specifying the maximum number of points.

Thanks,
Mac

I use AutoCAD 2009 at the moment, and the settings you are looking for can be found here:

1. Pick "Annotate" ribbon
2. Pick "Multileader Style" on the Multileader panel
3. Pick "Modify" on the Multileader style manager
4. On the "Leader Structure" and "Content" Tabs, you will find the setting you are looking for

Hope this helps,
Charlie

Thanks for the info. But what i need is the VARIABLE for these settings, I'm trying to write a (lisp) routine which would require changing the annotation, from MTEXT to BLOCK. I have tried looking for them from the SETVAR list but can't seem to find them.

Which version of AutoCAD are you using, I'm sure I can get it....?
Also, have you considered using a macro?

You are referring to MLEADER styles, while the OP asked about QLEADER settings.
These are different.

I'm working with ACAD2008.

Then why aren't you using MLeaders?
