Dim Mtext Window

[brassworks]

This is another "I used to" question. (AutoCAD 2000i)

Way back, when I used to edit MTEXT, the box came up and I could see easily the text in the box. Whatever color the text was (usually white, yellow, or green) showed up fine against a black background.

For several years now, when I edit MTEXT, the box comes up with the text, but the text is so faint against the black background that I can't really read it. This is regardless of the color of the text.

Any ideas, anyone?

Right click on your Desktop --> Properties --> Appearance --> Effect.

Clear the "Smooth Edges on Screen Font"

Wow! That worked like a charm. Who'd a thunk it?! Thanks!
