      I'm using the method entities:add_text("txt", pt) to add a notation to a component. But even when you rotate the comp so the notation is behind the component, it stays visible, as if I were in X-Ray mode (I'm not). Is there some attribute of the text object that makes it behave this way? I'm not using a leader. CB.

        I've figured out that if you set display_leader to false, or leader_type = none, then you'll get this behavior, where the text will display even if it should be hidden behind an object. Anyone have an idea on how to hide the leader without this happening? CB.
