Whiteout...How To ?

[Anonymous]

Hi, I need to " Whiteout " a text so I can place another on top of it.
How do I do it?

Thanks

Actually, it's a Dimension text.

Thanks

Use a filled region with solid fill - white. This is view specific as are all drafting tools and dimensions/annotations.

Why would you want to change or over-write the actual dimension?

Create a dimention type with super small text. Use an text with an opaque
background over the dimention text.

instead of using filled regions with Solid White patterns, use a filled
region with the pattern set to "no pattern". This will still wipeout
everything underneath it, but will not cause problems with black squares
when exported to DWG, DWF or PDF.
