Our company is in the process of switching from MAC's to ADT 2006. I've been using the program for about 4 weeks now. I like the background mask tool for mtext. I know you can turn this "on" in the properties palette or by right clicking when editing the mtext.
Is their and icon and key stroke to turn this one? It will save a few steps.
Also, can you set this to already be on when you start mtext?
