room size label fill

[mwarch]

for my room names I have chosen to have the room name fill transparent so as not to obscure what is underneath, especially in small spaces. however I cant find where the room size label can also be made transparent. Is it possible & how?
ps side note to chief, folder 'billiards' is spelt in library 'billards' & search function does not find it
thanks

Malcolm:

I don't believe there is a way to make the room sizes transparent, other than doing them manually as a text item. I don't know if this has ever been submitted as a suggestion for a fix so, you may want to do that.

To free up some of the space and all the clutter in my plans, I have added a layer set I call "Dimension Set". It adds an extra page or more to the plan set but I find it is much cleaner and easier for builders to read the dimensions if they don't have to look at all the other "stuff". I turn off and/or change line colors to light gray so the dimensions stay clean. I do dimensions for cabinets etc. on separate views as well.

Another way: Convert to Rich Text, then add a Macro for the Room sizes.
