AutoCAD/TEXT EDIT

Question
WHEN I TEXT EDIT THE TEXT IS TO DARK ON THE BLACK BACKGROUND.
IT WAS NOT LIKE THAT.  DID I CHANGE SOMETHING?
HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS?
THANKS

Answer
Miguel,

Can you select the text and tell me what color you're using for it?  If you're creating text on a black background and the color you're using is black, that's why.  Change your text layer color to white or another lighter color and it shouldn't be a problem.  

Using white is a good choice because it will change to black text if you make your background color white.  

Hope that helps,

Paul
