In traditional hand drafting the "container(s)" associated with an instrument are connected to the instrument with a line. (Much like a two-fer connects the two instruments with the container on top of the connecting object.)
I wish that we could create a connecting line in the label legend manager, or simply have a check box much like "right reading" that would draw a line from the center of the instrument to the center of the container.
For years I have achieved this functionality by creating a layer under my instruments, and drawing in the connections by hand, but this is a pretty ham-handed solution for such a fundamental communication tool.
