    Post Masking Dimension Text Autocad 2005

    Hey,

    Just finished reading the PDF file containing all the new things to play with in Autocad 2005, one is being able to mask objects and hatch behind the dimension text. However it says that I should be able to set this up in my dimension style, rather than changing them individually. I looked in the dimension style dialog box, but am unable to locate where I set the background fill to be turned on. Am I blind, could someone help me?

    cheers

    Hi

    Please note I've *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD General Forum to this one as I feel this particular Forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

    Thanks, Mike

    Under modify-->text you will see a box that says "fill color". Set that to background. See attached file
