So here is a weird one.
I work in two offices and in one I use empty fills with pen 91 as a mask (cabinet over a floor pattern) in Archicad and it works fine in plotmaker. In my other office, I must use a Solid fill with pen 91 to get a mask, if I use the empty fill, it looks fine in Archicad, but then in plotmaker the empty fill is transparent, and I have checked and I am not using the naught pen.(tranparent pen).
Any idea why I have this discrepency?
And now that I mention it. what is the picture background pen, next to the naught pen, can I set the background to a picture?
And on the subject of fills, wouldn't it be cool if 3D slabs could have a 2D fill show up on plan? This could be a new tool with the option of having the 3d off. That way, you draw your floor slab, and it shows the floor pattern, without having to draw a separate fill, kind of like walls fill patterns, they could be turned off in display options.
