    Default plotting 3d models in color

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    I am trying to simply print my model as it appears on the screen, but when I go to plot it shows my preview either in wireframe or as a shadow. I have tried all of the different view types (realistic, conceptual, etc.) but none of them print it as shown on the screen. Is there something I can do to plot it as is?

    In Plot manager select "As Displayed" in the "Shaded viewport options"
