    Text with a white fill has solid black fill in layout!?

    Just updated to X6....now any text in plan with a white fill displays with a black fill in layout. Anyone else having this issue?

    Have not sen that before, though when I want text to have a background I select the "Use background Color" radio button.

    Thanks Kevin, I usually use the background color setting, as well...I always do on new text I type in. These text items were dropped in from a library and didn't have that feature selected when I saved them to the library.
    It displayed as it should in public beta, but in the new "official release" is where I'm having the issue.

    I had the same problem until I read this post. Kevin's tip worked for me. The blacking out started after I upgraded to the latest OSX version (yesterday). I guess somehow the radio buttons were somehow changed to fill (black). Thanks!

    Here's something interesting - I changed the text fill color to black, and it displays as white in layout.

    A bug was introduced as the result of fixing a long standing bug with background fills that our testing team found. Unfortunately, because most internal usage of text would tend toward using the background color instead of specifying white as the fill we missed the problem in our internal testing. We have a fix for it in our code base now and are evaluating whether we will issue an update with that fix. Sorry for the inconvenience.
