Hi ADSK,

 

Can we please include the option to have the contour label transparent. This is to allow a raster image to show rather than big ugly white outs.

 

I get that the whiteout is breaking the line in a normal drafting view, but if we could set to transparent and offset from the contour line, would be an option, even though not ideal certainly would help

Agreed and site plans are where these contour labels are mostly used!!!

Please get this fixed ASAP.

The contour label should have the ability to be changed to 'transparent' like other labels

I just discovered this today, on a colored background...looks awful.

Please insert parameter opaque/transparent in the edit type of the contour labels.
