Callout without the arrow..

Callout without the arrow..

Callout without the arrow..

(OP)
Hey,
I know this may sound silly, but I can't figure out how to remove the arrow of a callout box.

Anyone?

Thanks

RE: Callout without the arrow..

Hi,

when creating you will find that option under the tab
'Text and Leader' --> group 'Terminator', set it to 'Blank'.
For an already placed one don an RMB and select 'Properties'

That sure rids me of the arrow, but the line is still there..
How do I remove that?

RE: Callout without the arrow..

you did ask for the arrow ...
To remove the line and the arrow select it and then within
the ribbonbar there is a button for the leader: set it to OFF

Bad problem formulation on my part, sorry.

Thank you very much!

RE: Callout without the arrow..

On the subject of turning off the arrow, I sometimes do that temporarily when re-attaching callouts where the element I am attaching to is quite small and blocked out by the terminator. It would be nice if the terminator was automatically off when dragging to re-attach and then on again when attached.

Don,
Unfortunately, as a contractor I never have the 'authority' to submit enhancement requests or get access to GTAC support etc.
