.stb Color White Plots White, Not Black - Can I change This?

[MSchille-1994]

While using .stb's now in our office, we want black Mtext but there are certain lines in the Mtext we want to plot color, how do we achieve this?  The only thing I can think of is to change the text color inside the Mtext editor to 0,0,0; however, you cannot see that on a black screen.

Show us what you mean please: share a DWG snip and an STB you use that exhibits this issue when you get a chance.

Hi,

do you mean "at the same place", not "inside the Mtext"?

So use another plotstyle for the lines..!?

Mtext plotstyle plot black (or if 7, plotstyle do not change the color)

and for the lines, use a plotstyle what plot in color you want.

?

but if you really mean IN mtext, do what you descriped, but with the lines. Overwrite the lines(what kind of "lines" do mean, share a sample: one original mtext, copy and explode it to text and "fake" the colors to match your goal)

okay yeah, I should explain better, some text to be black and some text to be color........see screenshot below.......

STBs do not allow you to what you want, sorry.
CTBs can do what you want for sure.

Thank you @pendean .  I figured as much, I just wanted to ask in case there was something I was forgetting.
