Is anyone else having issues where your Layout leaders start overlapping the text?
1 day everything is fine, next time I open the same file I have leaders overlapping the text as per below image.
The leader should be snapping to the bounding box but it doesn’t.
too big of a symbol
I’m gonna guess - because I managed to reproduce the issue - that your labels all have the last symbol, the long line. and then you’ve picked a size that causes it to overlap.
top is no symbol (the first in the list)
then it’s 2, 5, 10 and 20 pt long dash (the last in the list)
I see this as well… happens only on leaders where I drag to the other side and change text justification. Have not checked the leader end point as @ateliernab suggests, but I never ever remember setting that. My gut says (in my case) that it’s a remnant from a years old template.
Interesting you managed to get this to work like this. I haven’t ever had it happen on the left justification only the right side.
I don’t typically change the sizes here but will see if I can also replicate it.
I might add this doesn’t always happen it can be fine for weeks and the next time I open it they’ve done this.
Thanks for the input
This sounds more like the issue I’m facing as it only happens on the right justification.
I’ve tried to clear out all my old templates to stop carry over issues. Hopefully it’s not that as could be hard to track it down.
Thanks for your input.
