Seeing 'through the fill' so to speak.<BR /> <BR /> Aparently this is very easy in AutoCad. <BR /> We have a new person in the office making the 'leap' to AC-9, and trying to get some effects on an elevation. <BR /> <BR /> will appreciate any ideas.<BR /> <BR /> Thanks,<BR /> Cedric</T></DIV> Wed, 31 Aug 2005 15:00:31 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/See-through-Fills/m-p/39851#M19870 Anonymous 2005-08-31T15:00:31Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/See-through-Fills/m-p/39852#M19871 Sure you can - use the 0 background fill pen for transparency.<BR /> <BR /> You can also use the -1 pen that will match your background color and also translate to an AutoCAD wipeout if you are exporting out to DWG.<BR /> <BR /> Cheers,<BR /> Link.
