Floor Plan Export Display v24

Hi All,

 

I am having issues exporting a floor plan with the correct graphical visualization. 

I am trying to create a pdf of my floor plan with a transparent background. I have checked 'transparent background' in layout book, yet it only applies to master layout surrounding the placed floor plan, not the file itself. When publishing to any type of file whether it be pdf, tiff, dwg, etc. the background of the placed floor plan remains solid white. 

 

- I have tried to graphic override yet do not seem to be able to get the right combination to target the issue. 

- I have checked that there are no fills/slabs or other layers creating this issue of a solid background appearance.

 

Please help me achieve aesthetic plans !

Each drawing you place on the layout has an option for 'transparent background' as well.

So you need to make sure each placed drawing is set as transparent too.
