When was TEXTMASK introduced?

Hello,

Can someone tell me from which version of AutoCAD was the TEXTMASK command
introduced? I need to make a version check to see when this command can be
used in my program.

Regards
Rakesh Rao

Hi Rakesh.

I think it was 2005.

Test: (>= (atof (getvar "AcadVer")) 16.1)

According to this nifty website I ran across:

http://www.hyperpics.com/commands/

it was there by 2000.

Hi Kent,

I think you are confusing what ExpressTools did in this regard with what is built
into ACAD 2005 and later.

Back when ET created masks which only worked if ET was installed. That nonsense went
away when Autodesk incorporated masks in the core code.

Then that website is in error. It *does* make a distinction between REVCLOUD when it was a Bonus/Express Tool and when it wasn't any more, with separate lines in the chart. But it makes no such distinction with Textmask. I wonder whether there are others like that [even though I don't usually need to know such things].

Yes, there are other errors in that list. Many Express Tools commands are listed as being present in 2000i but absent from 2002, when in fact they were absent from both. I pointed this out to Lee some years ago, but I'm not sure he understood what I was getting at, so the list was never updated to fix the errors.
