Karynlisa99 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hello, I have recently upgraded from 2009 to LT 2015, and have noticed the new option of creating a transparent solid hatch. I like this as I can overlay parts of the building for clarity. However when I do a print preview is shows the hatch as solid not transparent. I have tried putting the hatch on a single layer and allocating a colour then going to plot style editor table and reducing the screening for this colour only to try and make it transparent but this doesn't work either, I have also tried putting the hatch to the back. Is it possible to make the hatch transparent or is this just a visibility feature for when you are drafting? Your replies are greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 How does it plot? The print preview can sometimes be deceiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karynlisa99 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hi Dana W I placed the Hatch drawing order to the back and plotted, and it has come out solid, loosing all the detail that sits under nether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven-g Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 It could possibly be one of the problems with 2015, but it works OK in 2013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
