Quick Leader Gap

[jfields.61630]

Is there a system variable or setting that controls the gap between the end of a leader line and the start of the MText?

it is setup under the dimension styles, it is on the tab that deals with text, it is
"offset from dimension line"

[jfields.61630]

That also controls the offset for the dimensions that are set to that style as well. So if I wanted the gap to be different between the leaders and the dims I would have to create style just for the leaders and set the offset distance there. Correct?

Yes correct.

or adjust each leader individually through the Properties dialog box

I appreciate all of the help. I was interviewing for a new position with a different company and was asked to take a CAD test. It mainly involved editing some text objects with leaders attached to them. The "design professional" was very particular about placement of the leader on the text--top of first line---bottom of last line. But when I placed new text using the quick leader it would put the text at quite a distance away from the leader. The drawing was protected so that I could not format any styles. It was a timed test so the extra time it took for me to go through the properties box made the test a bit harder than it should have. It was annoying me so I had to find the answer. Thanks again.
