How to re-enable a disabled Auto Stacked Text dialog?

If you have choosen "Don't show this dialog" in the Autostack properties dialog and now you want to re-enable it again - use the following routine in VisualLISP (you can save it to a .LSP file):

  
(vl-load-com)  
(setq regKey (strcat "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\" (vlax-product-key)
  "\\MTEXT\\Discretionary Dialogs"))
(vl-registry-delete regKey)  
(vl-registry-write regKey)

You can also select the stacked text, right-click and in the properties disable the Auto-Stack feature.
