How do I get material patterns to show up in my elevations for layout?

[rock_chalk]

Thanks to a William, the problem has mostly been solved. I am used to doing a lot of SketchUp models and the paint can is your friend in SketchUp...less friendly friend in Chief if you don't know what you're doing!! Once I reset all my materials back to their defaults I was able to get the patterns to show on my layout drawings. The only remaining sticking point is that when I am working in my model on elevations in vector view, the patterns still do not show up. I have them toggled on and I refresh the screen and nothing happens. In and out of the program, restart computer...nothing helps with this. But, I am happy that I can now finish my CD's and then start the next project and have a few minutes during which to work on the pattern problem some more.

Thanks to all for your help, especially William for taking a chunk of my plan, laughing like mad, then telling me how I should fix my screw-up!!
