  3. Click on Pick points and then click into the page to define the starting point of the line.
  4. Move the mouse and click on another point to create a line.
  5. Now you can either
    1. finish the line drawing by double-clicking or pressing Save Points.
    2. add further points to define more line segments.
  6. To finish the creation, press OK to close the dialog.

Note: If you did not define any points when creating the leader line, a short line will be placed at the center of the view.

Editing

  1. Select the Leaderline in the document tree and double-click on it.
  2. A dialog will open where you can change the appearance.
  3. To edit the points, click on Edit points and the line points become visible in the drawing.

Scripting

See also: TechDraw API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

The LeaderLine tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following functions:

myPage = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument().Page
myBase = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument().View
leaderObj = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject('TechDraw::DrawLeaderLine','DrawLeaderLine')
FreeCAD.activeDocument().myPage.addView(leaderObj)
FreeCAD.activeDocument().leaderObj.LeaderParent = myBase
#first waypoint is always (0,0,0)  
#rest of waypoints are positions relative to (0,0,0)
leaderObj.WayPoints = [p0,p1,p2]
leaderObj.X = 5
leaderObj.Y = 5

Notes

  • You can edit a Leaderline by double clicking on it in the tree view. Double clicking in the graphics area is not yet supported. The line segment(s) can be edited by pressing Edit points. To exit the point editing, press Save changes or Discard changes.
  • If you did not define any points when creating the leader line, a short line will be placed at the center of the view. You can later not add further points.
  • By default the preferences option Leader Line Auto Horizontal is activated. Therefore the last line segment will be horizontal. So if you only have one segment, you get a horizontal line, no matter where you picked the second point.
  • You can turn off the auto horizontal feature for existing Leaderlines changing the ДанныеAuto Horizontal property.
