    Default mtext vla-put-xxx on 'addleader

    I've been trying to changed the insertion point as well as other properties when using addleader method to make a lisp routine. However, every option seems to return nil. As a brief example here's part of the lisp routine:
    Attached Files Attached Files

    ALL modifications to ActiveX properties return nil. IOW, the only way to tell, programatically, is to check the value after changing it. If it is not physically changing, you may need to do an object Update on it.

    Well I've actually tried 2 different ways of trying to change it. I think the only way to really do it is disassociate it move it then reassociate it. The problem lies within the way the leader links to the annotation or object it's using. If you change either the other automatically updates. Atleast that's what I've come accross so far.
