Lets kill it with fire. If it wants to come back, it should be in the form of bulk editing of a set of selected attributes. Are there any use-cases for invisible text which is not an attribute? Since it might exist already though - we MAY have to add an: "Invisble [x]" option to the text edit dialogue box. The "Make Inv text vis" option is hardly a friendly way to work around that (non-existant) option though.. so I don't think removing it will hurt. As a kludge, to make invisible non attribute text visible, you have to put an "=foo" in it or something like that, so it registers as an attribute.. change the attribute visibility, then edit it with an explicit "ex" (edit text), to change it back. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!)
