CIRCULAR CALLOUTS

There are two callout objects in the Text Field category of your catalog. One is a Callout Bubble [one of my creations by the way] and the other is a rectangular callout box with a repositionable arrow head. However, there is no Circular Callout object.

To make a Circular Callout, all you really need to do is put an Ellipse, a Field and an Arrow together into a Group, and layer and position them properly.

Don't feel like going through the trouble? Use mine then.

To move the arrow head, all you need to do is double-click the arrow (at Author level) and when the selector handles appear, drag the arrow head to any position you like. Feel free to modify the line style, arrow head style, the stroke and fill colors of the various elements.

The images below show 2 sizes of Circular callouts in various color arrangements.
