Leader line not moving with label once a layer is saved to a QGIS Project.

[ioanamariamuresan]

Hello,

I've been using the easy custom labeling tool with QGIS 3.4. I have created a labelled layer and saved it to my project. After customizing my labels and moving to correct locations, I saved the layer's changes and used Memory Layer Saved to make the temporary layer permanent to my project.
When I reopen my project and try to change the position to the saved labels, the text part of the label is moved but the leader line does not move automatically with the label.

Many thanks,
Ioana

@ioanamariamuresan Hi, since 3.4, we launched https://github.com/Oslandia/labelconnector plugin
It should be easier to use. It doesn't rely on memory layer and keeps being synchronized with the data.
However, like easycustomlabeling, we "cheat" to add callout lines. This will be definitly solved in 3.10 where native connectors are coming.
I'd be happy to work on adding missing styles in 3.10.
I will probably not maintain EasyCustomLabeling for free, since efforts are made on labelconnector instead.

Thank you for the update. I didn't know about label connector. It seems to do what is needed. Thank you.
