    wall types in layout

    I have separate wall types in my drawing to differentiate new and existing walls. My new walls I have filled in with a solid color. This color shows on my drawing and on the layout page, but when I print it, the colored infill of the walls doesn't print. The infill color is black, as I have a monochrome printer. It used to print and now doesn't. Any help?? Thanks in advance

    This was changed in version 10.08 - as the Release Notes state: Changed the way we determine white or black fill information when color is turned off. Now the fill color is white if the color is nearer white and black if the color is nearer to black. Some folks (including ART) see this as a feature, others liked it the old way. You could go back to 10.07 if you can live without the other fixes - see http://www.chiefarchitect.com/suppor...?faqNumber=704 for the details.

    You could either use the hatch tool or change the fill.

    I believe they changed it back in 10.08a....someone who is using this could confirm (I'm using 9.5x).
