Is there an option that allows the arrowheads on leaders to be filled in a profile annotation group?
I have annotations created for the vertical high/low points as seen below. We use filled arrowheads for all other dimensioning and want these to match. I'm not seeing anywhere to change these to filled. Is there something I'm missing or is this not an available option?
Many thanks in advance,
Matt
Matthew:
Could it be as simple as turning on "fill" in the view attributes for the drawing?

Thanks for taking the time to reply Mark. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. The "fill" option is checked in the view attributes. We have other callouts that we've added to our profiles that have filled arrowheads. The ones that are filled are controlled by the dimension style used to create the notes. The HP/LP callouts are generated by the linear annotation group assigned to the alignment's feature definition (and Annotation Definition). The settings for the Annotation Definition can be seen in the original post.
I have discovered that I can select the arrowhead and drill down through the properties dialog to the actual shape and change the fill type (or use the Modify > "Change Fill Type" command) but this requires each arrowhead to be individually changed. While this is a workable option for filling the arrowheads it introduces opportunities for inconsistencies.
I found the answer. The settings to set the fill are in the Element Template assigned to the leader. All that was needed was to "right click" and "add" a "fill type" to the "closed linear settings". Once this has been done within the DGNLIB I just needed to update the element templates in the alignment files.
Thanks again for replying Mark. I wouldn't have found the answer if I hadn't been thinking through my reply to you.
