Just to clarify since I used the term break, yes I can use 'break' to cut a piece of the leader out, but that wasn't what I meant as my question.
As an also to your reply, diameter dims act the same way as far as I can see. In fact, they have even less options for flipping so I'm not seeing how to improve my stance that way. The leader layout for them is actually a bit worse but I wouldn't expect this function in a diameter for reasons that are way outside this thread so... anyways, if anyone knows some Jedi level stuff here, post away.
