In QGIS 3.34 I've been able to move the label around manually and the callout line automatically connects to the nearest point on the line geometry. Same with the automatically placed labels (when a sufficient distance from line is specified so that the callout line is drawn) - position of the label follows the Label Anchoring setting in the Placement tab. See example here. Maybe your label placement uses geometry generator? Could you share your labelling settings (Placement tab and Callouts tab at least)?– she_weedsCommented Feb 21 at 12:12

Thank you for your answer. Actually I'm now observing that i have the same behaviour. The problem is that, due to my layout contraints, the place where i put my labels puts the callouts lines where it's not obvious to see to which feature it connects (mostly at the end of my lines, where other lines sometimes also connect). Then it would be easier to have an option to manually control it, do you know if it exists ? My labelling settings are here and here– gregCommented Feb 21 at 16:22

```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>

<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. arcgis-desktop), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
