After adding a tag to a view, you can change its leader line in several ways.

|---|---|
| change the length of the leader | select the tag, then use the cross-shaped drag control to move the tag. |
| change the start or end points of the leader | select the leader and in the Properties palette, set the Leader Start and/or the Leader End to "Free" and manually position the start or end point of the leader.
Both free leader options feature the same behavior; they will move together with the host element or tag, but the leader position will otherwise be fixed.
