Origin Version 7.5G SR6:
Operating System WinXP:

Hi,

I am looking for a possibility to enable/disable the white out checkbox in the text control dialog box. Attention: I don't mean the white out option in the background drop down list.

Thanks for any comments,
Steffen

Sorry, I don't think that's possible.

Dear Mike,

while this was not the answer I was hope to get I found a solution for my problem.
In a graph window I have approximately 500 text labels. The look was terrible caused by the underlying grid so I had the idea to white out all of the text labels. After your answer I looked with a hex-editor to the binary code of the origin file and found the binary switch to toogle the white out behaviour. With a simple find-and-replace I switched all my text labels to white out. After that the Origin-file was loaded perfectly to Origin and now the look of my graph is perfect.
For information: A text label can be find in the binary code by its name. The text of the label will follow 115 bytes after the beginning of the label name. Between name and text after 56 bytes (counted from the beginning of the name) there is the binary switch of the white out behaviour. 0x00 will toggle off the white out and 0x20 will toggle it on. Maybe this will change in future versions of Origin.

Again thanks to you Mike for your answer.
Best regards,
Steffen
