I think what he means is that the dimension text could have a text background fill similar to normal text and labels. I think this is right up there for wishes and am voting essential. It would save me a lot of time in relocating dimension text to make it readable.

Cheers,

Gerald, this has been wished for many times, even once by you in 2005, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

Graphisoft don't seem to fix any of the obvious consistency between tools.

Things like this should be fixed in Hotfixes, and not be used as a "feature" of a future release.

Brett,

I knew it sounded familiar and thought someone had wished for it but I forgot it was me. It was a while ago

A few, load as soon as you get your copy.
For all the negativity of some I am very happy with 13.

More so now as TW2 will enable me to collaborate with others
I have been solo since shutting my practice in the late 80s, but now
thanks to some forward thinking by GS it will enable many very small
offices to participate in larger projects.

This, TW2, contrary to some is not just for the "big end of town".
