    How to place a Note/Leader without the text underlined

    Background

    When a note or leader is placed, the leader line is extending to underline the text part of the note (see image 1 below). How can this be changed to the normal appearance/display where the text is not underlined and the leader line just points to one side of the text (see image 2)?

    Steps to Accomplish

    1. Open Dimension Styles (from menu Element > Dimension Styles) or from the Place Note dialog
    2. Select the Dimension Style name from the left hand column that is used
    3. Click on the Advanced tab
    4. Expand the Notes section
    5. Change the fields 'Left Attachment' and 'Right Attachment' to 'First Line' (see image 3)
    6. Save the Dimension Style
    7. Try placing a note with that Dimension Style selected
