Creating a Flag Note with Leader

You can create a flag note with leader.

Important:

  • The leader is associated with the element you selected. If you move either the text or the element, the leader stretches to maintain its association with the element.
  • When you change the element associated with the leader, application keeps the associativity between them.
  • Note that using the Text Properties toolbar, you can define the anchor point, text size and justification.
  • You can move a text using either the drag capability. Note also that you can resize the manipulators, for more information, refer to Manipulators.

Before you begin:
  • Open an existing 3D shape.
  • Improve the highlight of the related geometry by selecting Highlight faces and edges in Selection.
