Lesson 13 - how to use Leader command in AutoCAD


 The Leader command in AutoCAD is used to create annotation lines that connect text or symbols to specific points in your drawing. Here’s a quick overview of how to use it:

  1. Activate the Leader Command:

    • You can type LEADER or MLEADER in the command line and press Enter.
    • Alternatively, you can find it under the Annotation panel in the Home tab.

  2. Specify Points:

    • Click to specify the start point for the leader line.
    • Click again to specify the end point for the leader line.

  3. Add Annotation:

    • After specifying the points, you can add text or symbols at the end of the leader line.

  4. Customize the Leader:

    • You can adjust the style, arrowhead, and other properties using the Multileader Style Manager.
