Place Multiple Normal Leader or Tangent Leader Annotations in Drawings
Use Add Leader for multiple normal or tangent leaders from a single annotation.
User Interface Location: Place a leader annotation normal or tangent in relation to your reference, right-click and select Add Leader. The Add Leader command is applicable to GTOLs (geometric tolerances) and notes. To add a normal or tangent leader for the non-modernized annotations (symbols and balloon notes), click Attachment and then click Add ref.
Release: Creo Parametric 7.0.0.0

What is the benefit of this enhancement?
When annotating a drawing per the standards, there might be a requirement for multiple normal or tangent leaders that are coming out of a single annotation. The command Add Leader provides the flexibility so you can meet this detailing standard. In earlier Creo Parametric releases multiple leaders are available for regular leaders, not leaders that are normal or tangent to the reference. In Creo Parametric 7.0.0.0 and later you can create multiple normal and tangent leaders. You no longer need to use jogs to manually get the same result.

Tips:
Supports the following types of leader annotations: GTOLS, notes, balloon notes, and symbols
Limitations:
The second leader is created as the same type as the first leader. For example, if the first placement is normal, then the additional leaders are also normal to the reference type.
