Hi,

I am trying to find zone of detail view on drawing.
My focus is to replace label on parent & I am thinking to replace that with note(with detail & zone information),
but if i have label selected(while creating detail view) , then in my parent view I have a leader pointed to that particular detail & replacing with note will only place note without leader.

Please suggest/ some sample code.Hope you are getting my point.
Thanks

Hi,
I am currently replacing label on parent with creating NOte using UF_drf_create_note(containing Detail & zone information), but I m struggling with leader containing detail note (eg: case of label in detail view dialog).

Eg: If i cut detail from parent & from the dropdown of label on parent, i select label,detail label on parent comes with leader pointing to circular if i replace this with note leader will be gone

Rather than replacing the label, have you considered adding a note with your information and associating it to the label? In this way, the note would follow the label; the label text and leader would be preserved.
