Table Of Contents
If you press Enter at the Annotation prompt without entering text first, the
following options are displayed:
Tolerance Creates a feature control frame containing geometric tolerances
using the Geometric Tolerance dialog box (see TOLERANCE).
You can create datum indicators and basic dimension notation in these dialog
boxes. After you specify the geometric tolerance, LEADER ends.
Copy Copies text, a multiline text object, a feature control frame with
geometric tolerances, or a block and connects the copy to the end of the leader
line. The copy is associated with the leader line, meaning that if the copied
object moves, the end of the leader line moves with it. The display of the hook
line depends on the object copied.
The value of the current text gap (see DIMSTYLE or the DIMGAP system
variable) determines where the text and multiline text objects are inserted.
Blocks or feature control frames with geometric tolerances are attached to the
end of the leader line.
Block Inserts a block at the end of the leader line. The prompts are the same
as for
INSERT on page 953. The block reference is inserted at an offset from the
end of the leader line and is associated to the leader line, meaning that if the
block moves, the end of the leader line moves with it. No hook line is
displayed.
None Ends the command without adding any annotation to the leader line.
Mtext Creates text using the
In-Place Text Editor when you specify an insertion
point and a second point for the text boundary.
Enter the characters for the text. Enclose format strings for prefixes and suffixes
in angle brackets (< >). Enclose format strings for alternate units in square
brackets ([ ]). For more information about adding a prefix or suffix, see Control
the Display of Dimension Units in the User's Guide.
