AutoCAD 2010 :: MLeader Text Moves Insertion Point After Editing?

Nov 28, 2011

AutoCad 2012 SP1 / Windows 7 64 bit

Sometimes I have MLeader text without Mleaders (ie, I remove the leader arm using MLEADEREDIT). Then when I go to edit this 'floating note', the base point moves:

In this screenshot, I've just finished editing the text. Note that I added in the diagonal line at the current insertion point of the Mleader text (top right): 

Then, after I click outside the Mleader box, the text moves:

THis happens only with right-aligned MLeaders, and keeps happening, ie if I edit this text again and close it again, it will move again.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Editing Multi Leader Text Insertion Point

Nov 16, 2012

Is there a way to modify the text insertion point of multileaders using lisp? We have a problem with some of our multileaders getting a landing distance set to a negative value.  My lisp routine will correct these to a default value, but then the text jumps a bit.  If I could get the insertion point prior to changing the landing distance then I could restore that point after changing the landing distance.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Block Insertion Point Moving

Feb 20, 2012

I create a block where coordinate 0,0 is my base/insertion point (which is established in an orientation that is to the lower-left of my blocks line work). In a new drawing I insert that block and specify coordinate 0,0 as my insert point. Instead of my insertion point being in the lower left it is in the upper right. I run into this in new version and old version drawings.

When using grips to move a multileader source block with the attachment defined as insertion point (the insertion point being the center of the source block) the grip point moves off of the block if the move is to the left of the multileaders end point. When the drawing is reopened the blocks move from where they were placed to the off insertion point grips. A screen shots jpg and a drawing file are attached

AutoCAD .NET :: Selecting Text At Insertion Point Of Other Text

Dec 3, 2012

I need to create a little application (Not the firt one in .NET but my first one for Autocad in C# .NET). 

What do I need to do ?

User select texts on screen. => Making a Selection Set of those selected texts. DONE

For each select text is on screen another text (on another layer) with the same coordinates.

For each text in the first Selection Set, I try to create a second SelectionSet (filtered to select text only, named acPSResPCode) but that SelectionSet stay always null. If I make the SelectionSet without filter I select every lines in the crossing windows, but no text are selected. 

Here's my code (PS : Code for AcadMp 2010)
 
[CommandMethod("SelectionPP")] public void SelectionPP() { //Récupère le document courant, sa base de données, et demarre une transaction Document acDoc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Database acCurDb = acDoc.Database; //Récupération de l'éditeur de la base de données courante Editor ed = acDoc.Editor; //Démarre une nouvelle transaction using (Transaction acTrans = acCurDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { //Création

Below is some example code from the site that i'm working from:

AutoCAD 2010 :: Extending MLeader Landings

Feb 1, 2012

I have had an issue with AutoCAD 2012 that I cannot fix. AutoCAD 2010 did not do this.

Here is the problem: I start by directing your attention to the attached file "LEADER PROB1". As you can see, i have two MLEADER notations. one ("TOP LINE") is above the other ("MIDDLE LINE"). The left side of the text in both mleader notations align and the leader jets out from the left side as well. However, each leader has a different angle at the corner of the leader landing. If I wanted to make the "MIDDLE LINE" leader angel to match the "TOP LINE" Leader angle, i used to move nod where the landing bends and continues on to the leader (circled in red in my attached image).

However, when i move this node, I end up with the angles matching, BUT now the text is not aligned, see attached image "LEADER PROB2".

How can i fix this? Quick Leaders ("QLEADER") works just fine (in regards to landing extensions) but not MLEADERS. I would like to extend the mleader landing but keep the text where it is, I don't want the text portion to move.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Changing MTEXT To MLEADER

Oct 18, 2012

How to change MTEXT to MLEADER? We often have texts on our drawing - mostly MTEXT and used line to the text.

Recently I started using MLEADER due to that it has added line to the text and looked more professional with consistent line setting out within the text.

The problem is that I don't seem to find a way of converting MTEXT to MLEADER. From the internet search, it seems that adding a LISP created by someone seems to do trick but I would prefer to do from the Autocad software so that all colleagues can use.
