Fills not showing in elevation view?

Anonymous

Hi

I have a plan drawing with all morph components filled with the various assigned colour fills. When I switch to elevation views of the same drawing the fills are not present only the black outline of the elements are showing with white fill.

In elevation settings in the model display I have Fill Uncut Surfaces set to 'Own Surface Colours (Non-Shaded)'.

I also have the Vectoral 3D Hatching box ticked.

I have tried trial and error with different combinations of the settings but I cannot seem to figure out how to overcome this.

Any help much appreciated.

Many thanks

Hmm, so strange. It's problem of this one elevation or any others?

Can't simulate this situation with written options. Maybe some outside settings/tools (like Trace) interfered there?

Morphs can have Cover Fills on the Floor Plan. You probably have Cover Fill checked for these Morphs.
However, in 3D only the Surface assigned to the Morph is shown.
You can select any of the faces of the Morph using CTRL-SHIFT-click and assign a different Surface to each of its faces. The result of that will be visible in Elevation Viewpoints.
