    Is there a way to fill the label frame with a background? When I select a background for the text but it is only placed over the text itself. Thanks

    Is anyone aware of a method in ORD to convert the dynamic labels to dumb text? When we attempt to drop a dynamic label, the label turns into dozens of pieces of linework elements. Thanks!
