COLORS DISPLAYING IN FLOOR PLAN

[Anonymous]

Some what new to Archicad but picking it up. Would like to see black and white display of elements but getting a few colors showing up. This is a floor plan created using hotlink modules of the units. Would like to see black entirely.

You need to adjust your PENS. Check what PEN # you are using and change them to BLACK. Assign that "pen set" to the VIEW that you place on your SHEET.

OPTIONS > ELEMENT ATTRIBUTES > PENS AND COLOURS

It's common practice to have number of pen sets.

At minimum have one that you work with within ArchiCAD ... I like to know that RED is 0.18mm thick, BLUE 0.25mm, GREEN 0.50mm etc ... it's easier to tell them apart than if everything is black and white.

Then you have a second PEN SET for you PDF publishing, with just blacks and greys etc.

Hope this makes sense.
