The bastard who decided that text leaders should be dimension elements
deserves a poke in the eye and a chinese burn.

Text leaders belong to text. If not actually clasified as text they should
be treated like garden variety graphic elements, subject to all the active
settings that apply to lines and linestrings. Turn of the level with text in
it and the leaders should go too. Having leaders subject to the settings
used to control dimensions and vice versa is plain stupid. What have text
leaders got to do with dimensions?... Zip, zero, SFA. Who needs text leaders
to ignore reference file symbology? who needs text leaders on the dimensions
level?

Agreed- just ONE example of the inscrutable "logic"???????? Bentley
applied in product development. My feeling is the original programmer
went for the quick'n'dirty fix on this one. Don't care too much HOW
elements are defined EXCEPT that a note & its associated leader must
behave as one element- which is not the case now.
MOZART is their golden opportunity to simplify & bring rational order
to the current mish-mash of tools, add-ons/EC's & workflow variations.
Living in hope.......
