Pardon me if this has been addressed previously as I haven't kept up on the boards.

When I do a crop region in 9.1, it will crop out everything except for the text outside of the boundary.

How can I hide the text that *should be hidden* outside of this boundary?

TIA!

Remember text is by view only and therefore you can erase it.

D'oh yah, thanks!

But I don't think it was this way in prevoius versions, can someone clarify this?

I believe it has always been this way but in two weeks (give or take) it won't have to be ;)
The next release addresses this issue.

If you link files together and then set the linked model to display by linked view this can be a problem. Since you can't tag objects in a linked file in the host file (room tags, wall tags, etc...) you have to do this to get the tags to show up. If you then crop that view you'll get the same problem and be unable to erase them. Our sheets on a project look like someone loaded a bunch of annotations into a shotgun and fired them at the sheet. ****-o-la. But, as said, in two weeks the problem vanishes. I just wish our GMP set was AFTER that happens instead of before.
