Move Point Attributes with Leader

This command allows the user to move Carlson point attributes (including the point number, elevation or description), and to draw a dynamic leader to the point node. Leaders and arrowheads may be customized by selecting Options at the command line. The attributes are always justified left or right depending on which side the leader starts.
