Leader elbows and text gaps.

Leader elbows and text gaps.

Leader elbows and text gaps.

(OP)
With Creo Elements/Pro 5.0, we use:
drawing_text_height = 0.10
dim_text_gap = 0.50
leader_elbow_length = 0.20

Notes with leaders have leader elbows that are 0.20" long and nave no gap between the note text and the end of the leader elbow (i.e. dim_text_gap does not apply to notes). But dimensions with leaders have leader elbows that are 0.15" long and text gaps that are 0.05" (i.e. the gap is created by shortening the leader elbow rather than offsetting the dimension text).

Is there another option (besides dim_text_gap = 0) that will make the leader elbows the same lengths for both notes with leaders and dimensions with leaders?
