I think that point has been debated several times before. Promises, promises... "the check is in the mail", "the upgrade is in development", etc.
Until we see .NET on the horizon, we'll put in our wishes/comments/complaints.

Why not text on a curve, > and some of the smart street labeling that's in MapText's Label-EZ? > Why > not provide line styles where you can change both the inside AND > outside color?
