how to flip geometric control frame to other side of leader in drawing

I am working in Creo 6 with an older drawing created in Creo 3.  I have added a flatness callout as can be seen in the attached screenshot labeled "flatness_left".  Creo will not allow me to flip the flatness control frame over to the right side.  When I try to move it to the right, it only gives me a bent leader line as can be seen in the screenshot labeled "flatness_right".  Is there a way to have the flatness frame be on the right with a straight and vertical leader?

Hold the shift key and drag the control frame.

There is always more to learn.

That worked!  I would have never figured that out.

I too would have never figured this out. I'm not sure why the Creo team doesn't just have this as an option when you right-click on the annotation, like they do for regular dimension annotations.
