Customization

toleranceZone

Controls when a leader line is placed or not based on the label's distance from the labeled object.

If the label is within the specified distance from the outer boundary of the object, then the leader line is suppressed. If the label is outside of the specified distance, then the leader line is displayed. For example, if the Tolerance Zone value is set to 10 mm, the label must be at least 10 mm away (in paper units) from the labeled object before a leader appears.

For labels placed manually using the Place a Label command, type in a distance value in the Tolerance Zone box on the ribbon.

breakline

Type -1 to display the leader jog.

BreaklineOn

Type 0 to omit the leader jog.
