Catia v5 text visulisation

[boomboom2]

If you have to write text over generated items in drafting, is there a way of removing the generated items directly behind the text, or alternatively a way of breaking/trimming generated items to achieve the same result.

hide or delete them, I prefer hide so you can see what has been done in noshow

Thanks but I only need to edit a local area without removing the full length of the lines.

ok, try to right click on the text box and choose properties, go to the text tab and set "blank background" to "area fill and geometry"

Hope it is what you are looking for

The option to "area fill and geometry" must be on a later version than I am running (v16). I had tried "blank background" but it made no difference, otherwise yes I am sure this is what I want. Thanks anyway

I'm on R18, don't have any machine with R16 so I can't check how to do it there, sorry.
