Material / colour not showing in 2D

How do i set the parameters so that an object shows in colour in 2D? As of now i manage to create the object, the material/colour shows in 3D but in 2D it's just the wireframe. The pallet to the left is the one that i created.

In elevation this is pretty straightforward. Just set the model display to use own surface colour.

In floor plan this is a little more difficult. I'm not sure it is possible to show the surface colour on floor plan (I could be wrong). You can get colour into your plans using work arounds such as creating an image fill, or having a coloured pen set that you use
