Attach Leader Center as Default

Hello,

After a drawing note has been inserted, it is possible to change the leader option to "Attach Leader Center". Does anyone know if this can be changed somewhere in the document properties? I would like to make it the default in our drawing templets.

It cannot. There is an SPR:

Add the ability to have 'Attach Leader' options for multi-line notes set to a default selection in document properties
========================

I don't understand why, but there are tons of things that you cannot set a default for in Solidworks.

Many things can be set by modifying it and then saving a new template. But I am not sure if that is one of the things because it is a pain in the neck to do.

Some of these can be set under Options/Document Properties/Note but not this one.
