    Default No. of leaders

    I use a blank leader family a fair bit - How do i get to default the no. of leaders (in the options bar) to 1 instead of 0?
    Thanks

    Wish you could - but alas no.

    Would also be nice to default to having an arrowhead !

    Haven't tried that myself yet, but I had an idea while reading this... If you load this blank leader into your template file and turn one leader on + set up your arrowhead, than you have it ready for the future, right?

    YES!!! We need default arrowheads! When using Keynotes with type catalogs for the keynote descriptions, you must set an arrowhead type for every single instance of keynote that you place! What a PITA!

    As long as we're at it, I'd like to be able to have more than two line segments in a leader.

    Out Interiors group shows Wall Types with a symbol, and then a line which bends around the room & terminates (usually) in a corner.
    Boy that didn't make sense, did it.
    I'll include a pic - alas from the A@*# program.

    The stuff I'm talking about is Magenta colored.

    Yes that seemed to have worked.
    I at least have an arrowhead on the end of my leader for all new projects.
    but
    as beegee says I cannot seem to control the number of leaders ... always defaults to 0

    The leader arrow setup in the template has not worked in previous versions (afaik ) - but it it does now.
