Editable attributes text mask

[SAFeSTeR]

Hi,

 

Does anyone know how I can create a dynamic block with an editable attribute that has the option to mask objects?

 

I have a very simple block, it's just a triangle with an attribute and I have applied some dynamic rotations to it. It is just used as a length marker for water pipes. I find it odd that there is no option to mask out the background like I can with MTEXT.

 

The only workaround I can think of is to add a true white hatch to the block.

 

Thanks in advance.

Background mask is available for multi-line attributes.

So it does. That's great, thanks very much RobDraw

 

I rarely have the need for multiline attributes so never saw the option, although I only found it in the text editor when editing the attribute text, it's a bit long winded but it does what I require.
