The text being justified to the side the arrow is on seems so much more visually intuitive to me, aside from that also being what had been taught to me, as well as what my bosses' were also in the habit of doing before I got here.
Now, I have a conundrum.
What line do you put the leader to?
1.) Center of top line when arrow is on left, center of bottom line when arrow is on right
2.) Center of top line always
3.) Centered on text as a whole, always
Those are the three opinions we have.
I was taught 1 first, then was taught 2, then was told to always use 3... now that I'm here I have one guy doing 1, another 2, another two guys doing 3, and I really don't have a habit because I have too many peopl b&#ching about how $#!+ is done around here.
