Vertical Callouts

Vertical Callouts

(OP)
Is there a way to control the grow direction of vertically grouped callouts? I have a situation where a user wants the leader to come from the top balloon, but when group vertically is selected the leader is always on the bottom balloon.

RE: Vertical Callouts

That capability, setting/editing the leader to be from either the Top or Bottom balloon, was added in NX 9.0.

Note that for 'Group Horizontally...' there is NO Left/Right issue as that is handled by simply dragging the first balloon like you would with a simple label.

Thanks for the answer John. I will pass that along and then deflect the question of when we are moving to NX 9 wink
