DIMTFILL and DIMTFILLCLR were not modeled, so a dimension's text never had a
background and lines under it stayed visible. Dimension styles now carry both
variables. DIMTFILL 1 hides what is drawn under the text in the drawing's
background color, and DIMTFILL 2 fills the box in DIMTFILLCLR. The box is the
text box widened by DIMGAP on every side. The arc length symbol over the text
and the DIMINSPECT frame are drawn over the background.

The variables work with SETVAR, DIMOVERRIDE and the style fields. DXF stores
them as DIMSTYLE groups 69 and 70 from R2007 and in the style's CADCRAFT
xdata in older files; the reader skips the record's flags, which also use 70.
For DIMTFILL 2, the dimension's *D block and EXPLODE add a SOLID in
DIMTFILLCLR under the text. A dimension drawn from the *D block it was read
with gets a background around each of the block's texts, before the block's
first text or first segment of the text's marks, except for a text that a
SOLID of the block already covers. The background stays after the drawing is
saved and reopened.
