LAYOUT - dimension - transparency

I use "center " dimensioning style with Layout and up to version 2023( I think) I was able to use a transparent background with it.

In the latest versions however, the line is continuous underneath the number.

I would love to know if there is a way achieve the same result as I did in previous versions…

are you using the new or the old engine in your second screenshot ?

does switching engine changes the result ?

It does it in both engineers.

I filed a bug back in the 2023 or 2024 beta release. Not sure if it will make it into a release. I’ve had to switch to solid fill in dimensions when needed because of this.

Thank you.

Yes. I think I flagged it back then, when it was changed. but nothing happened…

I also switched to solid background, but would preferer to use transparency…

Is there a forum where I could flag theses minor issue for improvement? I feel that a lot of little improvements could really speed up our everyday work. The once which are probably not too difficult to fix or add…

in here I guess
