tzframpton Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 The WIPEOUT tool is a thing of the past, in my opinion. Too many problems with plotting and vector/raster output, bloats the file, you have to deal with FRAMES, and hard to edit once in place. Instead, use a Solid Hatch with Masking techniques. You can find my procedure on how to Mask objects alternatively to using WIPEOUT in this thread, post #4: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?61218-Odd-Some-objects-hidden-by-wipeout-show-up-in-print& Delete the WIPEOUT and replace with a Solid Filled Hatch using one of the two methods, and you're all set. Tip: You might have to use Draw Order to place the Hatch "underneath" the objects you want visible in your block. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Ferral Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 The problem will be with your print driver. If you can't use a different / driver (or just a whole other printer) try StykFacE's recommendation above. NB: The trick is to change the solid hatch to 255, 255, 255 - aka 'True colour' white rather than using the AutoCAD 'White' which will always print black...

Rashi Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 @...Pabblo Ferral .... I tried with another printer .... but still having some problems .. that is ..with the new printer and new Computer I could get much better prints but its not the result I actually need ...I mean .. the black coverings which was up on the Block object is gone ... but the two base lines (means ... in case of using a block for insert a DOOR, Wall line is the base line) is still appearing, ( actually my walls is also Dynamic blocks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
