Overrun Attributes

How do I make an attribute block with overrun attribute.

For example:

I have a circle with attribute at the center. When text is bigger than the
circle, I want the part of the circle underneath the text to be hidden. Does
anyone know please help. Thanks

Maybe try adding a wipeout to the block? Of course you would then
have to resize it manually, but I don't think there's a way for it to
know just by the contents of the attribute.
Of course, maybe I'm wrong...

Is the text constant?
if so, can it be MTEXT? in MTEXT you can right-click and add the wipe-out
as part of the text "background mask".

Just a thought from one of the dynblock inept.

hope it helps,

I've done it this way on my section call out markers:
Create another visibility state that includes another circle, this one broken for the text. If you need more options you can create different circles with the broken parts on different sides and corresponding attributes with different justifications that go through the appropriate side of the broken circle. Don't forget to include the required attribute in the matching visibility state.

Could you show an example of your block and how you created it? We are having the same problem here.
