To Add Leader Anchors

Use this procedure to add leader anchors to your drawing. An object can be anchored to only one node at a time. When you try to anchor it to a second node, the object is released from the first node. You can, however, anchor any number of objects to a single layout node.

  1. Click Home tab Build panel Tools drop-down Content Browser .
  2. Navigate to Stock Tool Catalog Parametric Layout & Anchoring Tools.
  3. Select the Leader Anchor tool, and drag it to the workspace.
    Note: Alternatively, you can enter LEADERANCHOR on the command line.
  4. Enter a (Attach object), select the object to be anchored, and then specify a point on or near a node on a layout curve, layout grid, or volume grid.

    The object is anchored to the node that you selected. By default, the leader anchor is created at a direction of 0 from the node and has first and second extensions of 1 inch (25.4 mm). These extensions are measured from the node to the center of the anchored object.

  5. Press Enter.
