Our bridge designer would like a lasso leader for some of his call outs like I have pictured. I have done this with a cell but the problem is the origin is where I have circled in red, which translates to the end of the leader. I would rather have the origin at the center of the circle, but when doing that I get a line from the leader going to the center of the circle. Can anyone think of a way to make the leader look like I have pictured with the center being the end of the leader and not have a line going to the center of the circle?

I havent tried yet but the only way I think it can be done is to create an actual drawing of what you want with a fairly long leader and some text to the size you need it then drop the whole lot so its lines and text then turn the whole thing into a cell,
now you should be able to place it as a cell, and edit the text if you need to drag it out away from other text then use the fence stretch clip..
otherwise make a dim style with no terminators , make a cell of your typical size lasoo and just use you lasso cell to place the lasso first , have your place cell tool with interactive on and place and rotate to where and when you need it you could then step 2 add the no terminator leader style at the neck of the lasoo... yep a lot of steps but I dont think they can do it acad either...
