Custom fills no longer working in AC9

[kevin b]

We have made some custom fills, which have been in use probably since AC7, which no longer seem to work. Although other custom fills we have made do work. By not working I mean that they do not show up in the plans as they should, they show up completely empty. In the Fill Types dialog, everything appears OK, the fill appears as it should in the preview window. I have discovered that if I rotate the fills (ie. change the angle in the Fill Types Dialog) they work but its hit or miss, some I need only change 1 degree other only show up if I rotate them 45 degrees, which is no good for some of these to be used as intended. If I open the project in AC8.x they appear OK. It only seems to happen to a few of Fills which I could remake but am looking for the root of the problem here. The Fills in question are a couple of different sizes of checkerboard patterns (only the orthogonal ones, the 45s are fine) and a wide, 45 degree band. At least these are the only ones I've run across so far. As for display options, I have checked to make sure I am set with Vectorial. They do in fact show up "properly" in bitmap but the bitmap pattern is obviously useless. Anyone else run into this, no a fix other than remaking the fills, etc?

But they are good at making dams, so don't be ashamed.

... far better to have an internationally degusted bird named after your country than have your country named 'accidentally' after the indigenous word for village. Not that the alternatives in 1867 were all that sparkling.
