And you'll notice it's just there, just above the Text title bar there, Enclose in Object, and I'm going to click on it like so, and come into the drawing area. And again, it's in the text panel, like a lot of these text and annotation type Express Tools are. It's another one of the AutoCAD Express Tools, so to the Express Tools tab on the ribbon.
