strange behavior with fill on steel beam object

Achille Pavlidis · ‎2014-03-06

So when applying a fill on a steel beam object, the pen color appears fine if the beam is horizontal.
But once it gets rotated to say, 45 degrees the pen turns black and there is no way to change this...

Yes, it looks like if any value other than zero (0) is entered in the Rotation Angle field, the object uses the Contour Pen isntead of the Fill Pen.
I will report this to Graphisoft.

That is probably because it is going from a scripted 2D view with the proper pens when horizontal to a "PROJECT2" view when rotated.
