TEXTMASK

Poor readability of text covered by geometry, hatch, dimensions? It's repetitive problem with almost every drawing.

Solution: write TEXTMASK press enter and follow instructions on command line.

This function saves time usually spent on cleaning objects overlapping text or often deleting which isn't a good idea unless you know that you don't need them anymore.
