cberg Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 It would be useful to have the ability to create multiple leader lines in one annotation. http://help.solidworks.com/2012/English/SolidWorks/sldworks/Multiple_Leaders.htm Quote Link to comment

Andy Broomell Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Yes please! Since my callouts typically have a specific color / end marker / class, my current process is to create a callout, then hold Ctrl+Alt and click on the callout to pick up its attributes, then hit 2 for the line tool and draw the additional leader lines. Alternatively, you can draw the additional lines then use the eyedropper to tool to grab the attributes from the callout. Besides efficiency of creation, one major advantage of a single callout with multiple leader lines would be the ability to move the callout and have all the leaders lines stick to it. Currently I move the callout then have to manually adjust the additional lines. Quote Link to comment

KKKEN Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Yes, and box text toggle also on regular text Quote Link to comment
