Text Fills

I wish........................

Every time I put in text or leader textt say on a framing plan for it to look right I put a fill around my text and bring the text and fill to front. Why not have a fill built into text and leader text that could be tunred on and off?!?!?!

Any thoughts?!?!?!

Couldn't agree more, that's at the top my list. I get tired of placing fills behind text in extreme cases.
Since it's already in Plotmaker, you'd think it wouldn't be that hard.

What an excellent point. I don't do a lot of typing in PlotMaker, I forgot all about it. Graphisoft please fix this, I forward onto their wish list if nobody else has.

I'm glad they are some more people that "fill" the same way. And yes it seems like it should be a pretty easy fix since it is in Plotmaker already!!
Thanks,

You forgot to define the poll?

In fact - the text and the labels should both have the background fill equal to the background color, and we should have a toggle - transparent or not - or maybe it can automatically see whether it is over another fill or a zone or whatever and mask the element below?

And while we're at it, how about a fill/mask for S/E markers and the like as well.
