Is it possible to have Mtext mask fill COLOR and plot transparent like default
« on: October 01, 2011, 02:00:20 AM »
Hi.
Is it possible to provide Mtext mask fill COLOR and plot transparent.

The color (any color) is for visual identification that mtext been masked on drawing,
but at same time I dont want to print out in any solid shade or color just like default transparent masking.

Thankyou

Make the background color white(255) and in your plotstyle you can set this color to plot white.

That would make the background act like a white hatch. I.e. if it's over something else - it would blank-out that piece.

If you set the background to a "special" colour, but want it transparent when plotted. Set the colour's Screening value to 0 in the "Plot Style Table Editor".
