Morning all,

After placing a dimension and I do not like where SW puts the leader lines in relation to the edges I am dimensioning to, I go to either extend them closer or further away from the edges.  I pick the dimension, grab the little blue dots(handles) on the ends of the leader lines to move them closer or further away from the edges.  the leaders then become unattached from where they were and move all around.  After I put the blue dot(leader line end where I want it, SW snaps it back to where it came from.  How do I control the ends of the leader lines and put them where I want them and not let SW snap them where it thinks they should be?  Plus why do the leaders move around instead of staying attached to the edges?

Thanks again.
