Research: Text and Callouts

[corrcadd99]

Hello,

I was a beta tester for Versions 10 and X1 and have vented out about this in the past.

I hope I don’t open a can of worms but I still prefer the 9.5 text . The text leader association was great. (When copying text the Leader followed) The leader was user friendly, snapped in ortho angles, was very fast and easy to use. I'm spending extra time tweaking crooked leader lines and adjusting leader starting/ending points (Leader Tails etc..)

The latest Chief X1 patch has some issues with leader lines disappearing (text is showing but the leaders are not) Huge Bug ! Please Fix ! This would be fine if the leader line was associated to the text as it was in version 9.5

An option to revert to 9.5 text would be great (Check Box in preferences)

I did not like Version 10 due to the text changes (I thought it was a step backwards - not as user friendly) , Version X1's text is better but still needs work.

If reverting to 9.5 text option (Preferences) is not feasible, Than the following improvements would be a step in the right direction.

1. Copying associated leaders when copying text (as in CA 9.5)
2. Snap the Leader line tails to set angle snaps.
( Again - I hate having to tweak crooked leader lines tails)
3. All of the other suggestion in this post combined (great suggestions)
