auto-scaling and blocking out background with text
auto-scaling and blocking out background with text
(OP)
Hi,
I'm trying to do a couple things with text that would make life much easier, but I'm getting nowhere with AutoCAD help. I'm working with AutoCAD 2004.
1. How do you get text to scale automatically when viewing in different viewports? (i.e. viewing a layout at 1"=20' and then an expanded layout at 1"=10')
2. How do you block out objects and lines behind text?
Thanks.

RE: auto-scaling and blocking out background with text
As for blocking out objects behind text I think your refering that you dont want to see anything behind the text. If that's what you mean then you can try wipeout. Or once again if you have this on 2004 in your express tools-text-text mask.
Good luck
