Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
In preferences I have un-ticked "Leader Line Auto Horizontal" but when I create a leader at an angle, save it and exit command the leader defaults back to horizontal! I then have to-un tick the "Auto Horizontal" and edit the leader points to get it at an angle. This happens with all leaders.
Is it me or a problem with the Techdraw WB?

Re: Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
This was already reported recently. Can you check if there is a tracker entry?

Re: Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
There is an error in the Preferences->TechDraw->Annotations dialog. Looking at the parameters, the preferences are saved in TechDraw->LeaderLine->AutoHorizontal, where they are ignored. If I use TechDraw->LeaderLines->AutoHorizontal it works as expected.
This conforms to what Wandererfan says here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=42651.
In my config there are even more similar names used, which shows that there must have been more erroneous versions out there. OS: macOS 10.16

Re: Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
Sorry for late answering.
Please create a ticket. I use my whole time capacity for realizing the TechDrawTools in C++. But it looks good. 22 tools, out of 38, are finished till today. Hope the pull request can be posted in a few weeks.
Re: Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
edi look forward to receiving the post.

Re: Techdraw WB - Leader Auto Horizontal
I have sorted out what I was doing wrong!
I was just picking two points for the leader instead of three. Once I added the third point to create a short horizontal "tag" the "3 point/2 line leader" stayed in the picked position.
