General InformationYou can add a leader only to one annotation at a time. You should select one annotation only before selecting the Add Leader contextual command. Any multiple selection will be cleared. Creating Numerous LeadersTo create as many leaders as required for an existing text,
go to Tools > Customize and create the Add Leader
command in a separate toolbar. You will then be able to double-click the
Add Leader command and click to locate the leader(s) to be created. Positioning the LeadersYou can set the leaders at the standard positions with respect to the specific text frame using Allow only standard positions contextual command. Note that if you do not select this option, you can position the leaders with respect to the anchor point (for example, top left, top right, middle left, etc.). For more information, refer to Frames Anchor Table. Positioning the Anchor PointYou can position the anchor point automatically, using the Automatic Positioning contextual command. It positions the anchor point with respect to the annotation position. However, note that, while manipulating the text using the slide text manipulator, the Automatic Positioning mode is released. AssociativityWhen you create an annotation, a type of leader is automatically
set, provided the standard files have not been modified. If you
choose the Automatic option, a default symbol will be used,
depending on the standard type, on the annotation type, and on
whether the leader is associated to an element or not:
The leader remains associative to the text even if you modify the text it is associated with. |
