Zone fill not in Plotmaker

Have zones with category fills in AC9. Import into PM. No fills. No zone outlines. No zones at all.
Nothing in display options or anywhere else @PM to have them show up.
Any help?
Have saved before importing.

What are the Display Options set to in the View you are placing?

cover, drafting, and cut fills are are set to vectorial hatching, zone polygons =cover fill, zone stamps = show, Fill background color = by element settings.

Not sure if there is anything else that pertains to zones.

Zone Polygon needs to be set to "Fill Pattern on Category" in order to show the Zone Colors.

I bet if you double-click on the view in Archicad as it's set now, your Zone's will not show in Archicad either.

Key word was view set. Had them screwed up. Thanks for the quick reply. Always most helpful in crunch time.
