Revit 7 Text and Spot Elevations

[eldad]

Hi there,
converted our project from 6.1 to 7 and noticed a couple of things (so far :) ) first the text looks real ugly! it's like anti aliasing is turned off, how can I get my "good looking" text back?
second, Spot Elevations won't snap to stairs landing! this could not come at a worse time, I was just in the middle of putting spot elevations on my stairs...
any ideas?

Maybe finish out this phase of your project in 6.1? Leave the little "dialing in" for when you don't have a deadline breathing down your neck

mate, I would love to, but by the time this project is finished, Revit 9 will be out... :)

I can't replicate any problem with either text or spot elevations when opening an old 6.1 file.

Got it!
under options-> Graphics, just untick "Use overlay plains to improve display performance"
now my text looks good again :)
