Steve1980 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I need to show yellow highlights of some areas on a 2D black & white drawing. What is the best way of doing it? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chulse Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Do you use CTB files to print? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todouble22 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 you could hatch a rectangle or whatever shape you want around the objects and select the color of the highlight that you want to use. you'll probably have to set the draworder to back of the objects you are highlighting. does this help?

BIGAL Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Be careful using yellow it is a funny colour on white bright paper if you have skinny shading you may want to use one of the shades of yellow. We use 1-9 as black and white, 10-250 as colours makes the ctb set up easy just use their default colour so shading yellow use 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1980 Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 Another words, I'll need to use solid hatch pattern assigned to yellow color, which will be turned to non-grayscale in the ctb plot style table editor? Is that correct way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Just set your colour in the ctb as "use object colour" for each colour number you can pick lots in one go to set hold shift etc if they are not by colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
