If you create an elevation where some elements are cut and others are uncut, only certain vectorial fills will show on the uncut elements. For example, I created a slab with a building material of Concrete, using the Lightweight Concrete fill. It does not show up for an uncut element but does for a cut element.
However, if I change the "uncut" Concrete surface to have a fill of brick-common bond, the fill shows just fine. Likewise, Wood 00 shows just fine. Most all other fills do not show up on the uncut surface.
If I push the elevation marker through that uncut slab so that it becomes a cut surface, all fills show up.
I have tried virtually everything I could think of to resolve this to no avail.
I did end up getting what I wanted by using Graphic Overrides to specifically mandate that the element ID of the slab showed the Lightweight Concrete fill, but it seems a bit silly that I would have to do that when the fill should have been shown correctly in the first place.

OK, thanks. Even when I turned overrides off the hatch doesn't work for me on the uncut surface.

You could create a simple file which is simplified down to the elements necessary for the issue to appear and save it as a PLA, then put it on Dropbox or some similar site. Then we can download it and take a look at it.

Sure. Here you go. While I realize you both seem to be looking for me to be doing something wrong, has anyone tried to recreate the issue and verify if it's indeed a bug?
Can you show a screen shot of the building material please?
I have tried to reproduce your problem but I am not having the same trouble.
