3D Document Not Displaying Fills

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi

Could anybody please help me with this problem:

When I create a 3D documment from an Axonometric view the 3D document does not display the fills. The uncut surfaces are all white.

In the 3D document settings under 'Fill Uncut Surfaces With' I have selected 'Own Surface Colours (Shaded)' but this has no affect on the fills.

Where am I going wrong?

Thank you

Rich

Is 'vectorial 3D hatching' turned on in the settings?

Hi Barry

Thank you for your input.

I have tried it with 'Vectorial 3D Hatching' turned on and off. Either way does not affect the 3D document.

Try changing the Fill Uncut Surfaces With: to Uniform Pen Color, and set the Uncut Surfaces Pen to a White pen color.
