HI,

I did a working drawing and the roofs didn't quite cut out the way i needed it to (long difficult explanation) so i just covered the extra piece of roof with a white filled region and invisible lines. I used the same on elevations. On elevation it works fine and in section it appears fine until i try to print it. The fill comes out black! so instead of having nothing (which i want) or a wrong roof, I now have these black triangles on my drawings. what am i doing wrong or is this just normal??

If normal, what must i do?? and don't say fix roof, coz then i'll be typing for a week!

:-)

Regards

Peter

Change your print setting from black and white to greyscale or color.

Pleeeeeease fix this old, tired bug (not a rant, just a tired old request on a tired
old subject, from a tired old curmudgeon :P)

Really, I do allot of my structurals and linework in color so I can identify them quiky on a messy
screen. I really don't like either A), resetting all my line styles to black prior to printing, so that anything other than black, prints dark in greyscale mode...B) drawing everything in black.

oldtiredrant/oldtiredrequest/oldtiredbug fin.

thanks
