    Thumbs up Drawings displays as white in Paperspace.

    I have received drawings from an outside source, and the drawing as displayed in paperspace is all white. But when I go to model space, it shows it's different colors.
    Also, if I list the items (in paperspace) to find out what their color is, it shows whatever color is listed in the layer.

    This is a stumper for sure. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    We use AutoCAD 2005.

    ******* UPDATE *******

    I found that in the PS Layout tab had the "Display Plot Style" box checked. This will show, On screen, what the outcome of the plot will be. In my case, it would've been all black (white on screen) with different line weigths.

    Thanks for the ear.

    Goto your Pagesetup manager and turn off Display Plot Settings.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    Talking Re: Drawings displays as white in Paperspace.

    Got it..... I actually figured it out after I wrote the message. That is the reason for the ****** UPDATE ******* in my post.

    But thanks for the reply.

    Hi Gary

    Please note that I have moved this thread from the AutoCAD Tips & Tricks Forum to this one. I believed it would be better suited here.

    Thanks!
