place note with text below line

Can the text from a Place Note command be made to display below the leader line?  We would like to be able to put "proposed" text above the line, and "existing" text below the line.  I have written a VBA that works, but would like to know if that was needed.

    1. There is no direct tool or setting that can draw line over the text in Note.

    2. Also writing below and above in-line leader of the Note not possible.

    Just for above both issues I've tried some workarounds,

    1. I've created text style which having Overline and used it in a Note but problem here is you will see overline to every text line you add to it.

    2. I've created a cell with two text styles, one with 'Left Bottom' justification for proposed text and another with 'Left Top' justification for existing text. Used this cell in 'Place Label' tool and it works fine.

    Please find attached dgn file.

    HTH,

    Manoj

  • Adding to above 1st workaround....
    In text editor when text lines are more than one > select all text line except 1st > click on [...] button > In 'Text Styles' dialog > General tab> turn OFF 'Overline' checkbox.
    This will remove unwanted overlines. After finish Reset the style again.
