Hidden menu - Multi-jog Balloon leader!

Hidden menu - Multi-jog Balloon leader!

Hidden menu - Multi-jog Balloon leader!

(OP)
I finally found the option to create a multi-jog leader to an already-created balloon, by accident...but...I cant seem to be able to do it again!
I was trying to find a way to associate the balloon number to an annotation-note (not sure if its possible) when i right-mouse-clicked on the balloon (somewhere) and was presented with a different menu...to my surprise i saw "jog leader" (or something like that)...So i picked it and it worked!, I created a proper multi-jogged leader to that balloon!   But now i can't seem to be able to do it again!  I've tried everything, holding ctrl/rmb, shift/rmb...etc.
Must be new for SW2006 (sp3 perhaps?)

Has anyone found this feature?

RE: Hidden menu - Multi-jog Balloon leader!

I don't see a multi-jog leader in SW06 SP3. I still see all the same leaders as before. I know there is an icon for Multi-jog leaders, but it's has nothing to do with Balloons from a BOM.

You can split the arrowhead and make 2 arrowheaded leaders, is that what you did?

Yeah i've seen/used all that too. Thats why i nearly fell out of my seat when i stumbled across this 'new' option that allowed me to change the balloon leader to a jogged leader...
Im thinking there is a certain spot on the balloon that gives u this menu (dock point maybe), but i tried that also.   Its going to bug me all weekend! ponder
