Layer Format Question

I've been experiencing some mysterious things happen with my AutoCAD so this may be part of a bigger problem.

Isn't it possible to change a layer to the square that has half white and half black (sorry don't know the proper name). This allows the text to show up in black when the background is white and vice versus.

I changed my text to black and it disappeared because my background is black. Not all of our CAD people like a black background so the text needs to switch depending on the background.

Thanks for the help.

The half black/white square is nothing but color 7 (white), which will change depending on the background color.

Try setting the layer color to 7 and see if that works.

Thanks uddfl...that works.
