kfurst Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I can't see the transparency of my hatches in model space ... but they show up in print preview ... Is there a system setting somewhere that will let me see the transparency in model space too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Not entirely sure. Would it be CETRANSPARENCY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfurst Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 That sets the default transparency for layer .... Can other people see layer transparency in Model space? Or is this just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Well you can probably guess by my answer that I don't even use layer transparency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfurst Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 S697-ENTERTAIN SYS OVERVIEW-DK 4 (2).dwg Here's part of the file- in model space the sold hatch appears without transparency ... but if you look at the layout in print preview it does show up. It will make what I need to do really difficult if I can't see the hatch's transparency in model space. Any/all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

SLW210 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I would select the hatch and use properties to set the transparency. Are you sure you have _TRANSPARENCYDISPLAY = 1? CETRANSPARENCYByLayer Transparency value determined by layer ByBlock Transparency value determined by block 0 Fully opaque (not transparent) 1-90 Transparency value defined as a percentage To change the transparency of existing objects, use the Properties palette or the Layer Properties Manager. Note: Transparency is limited to 90 percent to avoid confusion with layers that are turned off or frozen. The transparency level for new hatch objects is controlled by the HPTRANSPARENCY system variable. HPTRANSPARENCYSets the default transparency for new hatches and fills. Valid values include "use current" or ".", ByLayer, ByBlock, and integer values from 0 to 90. The higher the value the more transparent the hatch. Values other than "use current" or "." value override the current transparency, CETRANSPARENCY. Changing this value does not affect existing hatch objects.

AutoPanic Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 HEY THERE. I got the same problem, sadly... I did -cant see any transparency difference even i already change the value. aand i just findout myself.... i hope this might help as well.... type TRANSPARENCYDISPLAY and type 1. if you type 0 = the transparency will be the same even though you set different transparency value (%) if you type 1 = you may visualize your object transparency You might want to test it out by set different values drasticly just to know if its working or not. like 0% = solid color 50% = half transparent 90% = almost cannot see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
