Bobzy20 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hi I have created a hatch with a Transparency of 30% so I can see what's underneath. All looks good in Model Space but when I do a print preview from Paper Space the hatch appears to be completely solid in colour again and has no transparency. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBullseye74 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Yes when you print under plot options there is a tick box for 'plot transparency' check this and you will be ok. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBullseye74 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 No problem, watch out for the file size when ploting to PDF and make sure you uncheck it when you aren't plotting transparency as it messes with your other linetypes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobzy20 Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 Thanks again for that. It seems 2012 always un-ticks the box anyway after you print which is a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salih Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Hi, I have created hatch with some transparency..eaither i tick box in the plotting options "plot transparency", as a printing output i get nothing on the transparency hatch postions. Solid hatch gets out fine. I have HP plotter and using CAD 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
