Turning on/off the new 2016 function of Mtext Border using lisp
« on: November 04, 2015, 01:37:12 PM »
I've run into a situation where this mtext border looks really good with a routine that I'm working with and with it being a new function I cant find anything about how to manipulate it in lisp.

If anyone may not know what I'm talking about, check out the attached .png for a visual of what you physically change to get the border without using a lisp routine.

I'm not finding anything that backs up that statement, I've found

where dxf 90 is:

Background fill setting:

0 = Background fill off

1 = Use background fill color

2 = Use drawing window color as background fill color

A typical way to detect such settings is to disable the relevant feature in question and query the entity DXF data (perhaps using this) or ActiveX Properties (perhaps using this), and then enable the feature and query the data again to see which group values or properties have changed.
