It is suggested to create leader objects by the MLEADER command. The QLEADER command can be used to in the following options: - Specify leader annotations and annotation formats; - Specify the annotation location of multiline text on the added leader; - Limit the number of leader segments; - Constrain the angle of the first and second leader segments. Users can modify the annotation type and the number of leader points to meet the demand of drawings in Leader Settings dialog box.
