Problem with viewports and linetypes

[zetnie]

First of all, I am using AutoCAD 2008.

Ok, I have 5 viewports, and this is the only one that is messed up. I have an object, but when I plot preview it, it is the only object pixelated.

Also in the same viewport I have a center line on the object and it automatically turns to the same lineweight as the object and it shows pink in the preview, but everything else is black. I checked all the settings and everything is right, and even other people said it was right too.
When I print it there is almost no lineweight for either the centerline or the object.
I asked my teacher and he said it is something wrong with viewport, but he wouldn't give me an answer.

Please help, and if it's too confusing, tell me.

What if you delete that viewport and try creating another one? Does that fix it?

press the "Print Screen" key n a screenshot will be copied on your windows clip board

Bring up your plot preview on screen and then hit the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard. Should be up on the top row of keys on the right side next to F12. Then open up any paint program and hit Ctrl+V to paste from the clipboard. Then just save as a jpg and post it here.

I just don't understand how a vector line drawing can appear pixelated when plot previewed?

Have you tried deleting the viewport, as smorales suggested, or do you have to wait til tomorrow?

I'll go on tomorrow morning, but I'll be on here tomorrow too.

so whats the problem?

[zetnie]

The pixelation thing. You can't really tell from here cause I didn't zoom in a lot.

do you mean that when it prints it shows triangles instead of a smooth round edge?????? if so try changing your DISPSILH variable....
