AutoCADs quickleader settings allow you to specify how you want the arrowhead to appear. In most cases, “closed filled,” is the default arrowhead block. If you happen to change the block to something other than “closed filled”, (for example, “dot”), and then draw leaders using the new style, then it becomes impossible to set it back to “closed filled” within the settings for the command.

Workarounds:

(setvar "DIMLDRBLK" ".")

Status as of 2007: (unknown)
Status as of 2008: This appears to be fixed! Tough luck to the non subscription customers.
