hello,

I have a problem where all of my props and objects, including doors, windows and doors are grey colored even though i never set any color up for those, they are meant to be transparent(white) and i can't figure out how to change that. Thanks in advance for your help MA

You are on a layout and the drawing is using whatever pens are assigned to it in the Drawing Settings. Select the drawing, then cmd-T/ctrl-T to see what the settings are.

I assume the original view that you dragged onto the layout to get this drawing had the desired colors?

You may want to check your 2D Representation is showing the correct fill (see highlighted parameter). Also, you may check that you do not have any Graphic Override Rule (GOR) in your view settings that are affecting the objects' assigned 2D fill or pens.

You can also create a view GOR to override the fill that is appearing by default.

Thanks for your help,

the issue was solved by modifying the settings in "trace and reference"
