-I have 'hidden' the text at large (small?) scales by making it very very small, which is not a very elegant solution because the resulting file size can be significantly larger than it needs to be.  Does anyone have an alternative way of turning off selected text sizes in a layout (or other high level) file without having to go back and edit every single scrap?+I have 'hidden' the text at large (small?) scales by making it very very small, which is not a very elegant solution because the resulting file size can be significantly larger than it needs to be.

 +With the release of 5.3.11 the behaviour of this template has changed.  In 5.3.10 it sorted names by passage length associated.  In 5.3.11 it sorts names alphabetically.  A simple change is required to obtain the original behaviour.
