The symbols used for the LeaderLine, Border and AccentBar can be changed to suit the needs of the specific application.

CoClasses and Classes Description

Remarks

The LeaderLine property sets the symbol used to draw the leader line and can be set to any LineSymbol object. Similarly you can change the appearance of the accent bar by setting the AccentBar property.

The spacing between the Border and the AccentBar can be adjusted by setting the Gap property. This property indicates the separation between the center of the AccentBar and the edge of the Border as a distance in points and does not account for think outlines on either the AccentBar or Border.
