roof surfacce as a cut fill?

Anonymous

H'lo,
Our office standard is to give a gray fill to a roof plane in elevation; I have modelled the roof with asphalt shingle, and used the "Solid Fill" fill for its vectorial hatching, and set the pen to the gray we like. When I go to represent this in elevation, however, it doesn't appear as a fill unless I choose the Display Options to display cut fills as vectorial hatching...but it's not really a cut fill, is it? I am trying to minimize the number of different display option combinations I have to use, and had been using the same for plan, section, and elevation, but I want the plans to show the cut fills as separators only. Is there a way to tell AC that the roof plane fill is something other than a cut fill, or is it something about the way I have set up my elevation marker? All advice is most welcome. Thanks and thanks again!
