Wall, line fills

Anonymous — Thu, 07 Oct 2004 16:49:27 GMT

Hi, hope this is easy. I just got blasted at the county. Seems my plans have far too much detail. They would like to see a solid black fill indicating new, empty indicating existing, empty with hatching representing altered.
Now I have the actual walll fills (siding,studs...).
I know how to change the fill type but only on the model which changes the fill on every subsequent drawing.
? How do I change the wall fills on only some drawings ? ie, soild fills on the site plan and accurate fills on the floor plan.
Thanks
Mike

In ArchiCAD: set the Dispaly options for wall fills to Solid on your site plans in appropriate views

In PlotMaker: make sure that the Dispaly options are set to Keep original settings, if your views are already set appropriately in ArchiCAD. If you want to tweak the fills in PlotMaker, then change them there - but it can't be done per view or per layout, unlike the pens, that can be set per placed view.
