All,
Does anyone know of a way of inserting an arrow on a drawing? What I would like to do is on an assy drawing have an arrow poing in some direction and then place text by it stating "Orientate in this direction". I have though of a multi jog leader, but that looks kind of sloppy. Any other ideas??

Thanks

A leader with text is the only way I know of. Or draw the arrow in a sketch.

Sorry guys. I got so flustered that I could not figure it out, that I over looked the answer. Insert a mulit jog leader. Change one tip type to no arrow then have my text point to the leader I just made...
 
Once you have created the leader & note, create a block of it for future use.
