Callout leader line showing halo on top of shadow

AniKasch

Hi! 

I'm having trouble with label symbology. I'm using a composite callout and my leader line is showing a halo on top of my drop shadow. I don't want to offset the leader line because that would make a gap for labels where the leader is not over the drop shadow. How do I fix this? Thanks for your help!

You could create labels with that style using either a Composite Callout or a Point Callout. 

When I set up a basic Composite Callout symbol I can't reproduce the interrupted shadow in your screenshot (I'm using ArcGIS Pro version 3.2.0). Here are the settings I used - maybe you can compare to see how your settings differ. 

 

Here are the settings you can use to create a similar style with a Point Callout:
