Controlling the Visibility of a Dimension Segment Leader

Control the visibility of the leader for an individual dimension segment without affecting the leader display in other segments of a dimension chain.

  1. In the drawing area, select the dimension you want to edit.
  2. Click the dimension value.
  3. In the Dimension Text dialog, for Segment Dimension Leader Visibility, select one of the following options:
    • By Element. The leader is displayed only if the Leader option is selected on the Options Bar or Properties palette.
    • Always On. The setting for the Leader option is ignored, and the leader is always displayed for this dimension segment. (The leader style is determined by the dimension type properties.)
    • Always Off. The setting for the Leader option is ignored, and the leader for the current dimension segment is always hidden.
  4. Click OK.
