Is there a setting I've missed?

I've loaded Archicad v8.1 and am needing to import a DXF drawing. Unfortunately, my translator attributes do not include 'Fills (save methods)" as described in the Archicad User Guide Vol 2 page 150.
Is there a setting I've missed?

Thank you Djordje. It was set correctly in Tools. There must be a problem with the DXF file I was given. the client's hard copy showed fill, but her DXF copy of the same drawings do not.

Thank you again. Options ARE set on vectorial fills but it still doesn't show. I'll get my client to check her file.

What happens when you load the DXF, activate the fill tool, and hit CTRL-A (select all)? If anything is selected, the fills are there, but - as AutoCAD knows nothing about scale - the fill lines might be too far apart. If you opened the DXF at the units it was made in, and at the scale it was made for, all should be well.
Another option is that the pen of the fills is the same as your background pen? Check it if there is anything selected when you Select all.

I have tried CTRL-A and nothing appears. I don't think that her file includes the fill. I'll contact her and see if we can sort it out.
Thanks again.
