I'm running autocad 2013 and it has some nice hatching options, but when I go to plot them with general layers that are setup to plot in black, they print in color. I have a monochrome.ctb file i'm using and if i plot regular lines they are fine.

If I were using a *.ctb file it would be obvious, but I'm doing contract work for a client and am using their *.stb file, and I don't have the option of adding another option to their *.stb file.

I used by layer and black 250 color also. You can see that the gravel, the concrete foundation and the water hatch is grey.

I am having trouble getting a DXF underlay to plot clearly and boldly. I insert the ref to the dxf, then, in paperspace, create viewport, etc. I plot all files to pdf (seperate install) for record purposes. When plotting this file, the dxf is very faint--even though the preview is very bold and dark.

View 3 Replies View RelatedJust downloaded Autocad 2013 and am missing quite a few of the standard hatches (siding, soldier, board and batten, etc.) What should I do to get them back. When I open old drawings with these hatches in them, they load just fine...but I am unable to hatch any new areas with these hatches (because they are not listed in the hatch library)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a gradient hatch that using draw order i have sent to back and also tried to send behind other objects. I have tried using HPDRAWORDER (not quite sure what it does) but used values 0,1,2,3,4. the problem is when i plot the hatch, it comes to the front and i loose any lines going through the hatch. i have also used the send to back command while inserting the gradient hatch.Nothing Works.
How do i plot with the gradient hatch behind other objects?
What exactly does the Transparency control do in the Hatch and Gradient mode? Any example?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.
I have been migrating dozens and dozens of .pat files from one version of AutoCAD to the next for many, many versions. Most recently in AutoCAD 2013 the .pat files were stored in the C:Program FilesAutodeskAutoCAD 2013SupportPatterns - worked fine. During the migration to 2014 I received an install error report stating that this subdirectory did not exist and could not be created. Alternately it stated that the new default path C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupport will be used instead.
At first I created the Patterns subdirectory where it could not be done automatically. No luck. Then I placed the Patterns subdirectory in C:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamiongAutodesk|AutoCAD 2014R19.1enuSupportPatterns and no luck.
I am trying to make Apple's mostly greenish star space wallpaper for iPhones from iOS 7 (see the attachment #1) into beautiful gradient of colours.
The problem is that I do not know how to do it, so was only able to make a striped version colouring via huge brush, not true gradient.
how I could make a really smooth, gradiental transition between colours?

A grip of a hatch is not snapped to another, In the attached screenshots, I tried to move the indicated grip to a target one but no “sign” for snaps is shown!
The screenshot and the dwg are attached. How these two grips can be snapped?

Here's a new one for me. All the hatch in a drawing file 'vanished'. Can't pick it, can't see it - layer is on and thawed.
I used FILTER to select all the hatches on the layer, and wblocked them out. File is attached, just rename from the .zip extension to .dwg
I still can't see them, or pck them. Auditing will remove the associativity, but that's about it. Still nothing to see.
Our engineering department users are facing this problem that the hatch patterns are not visible. Everytime they have to use the FILL command when they open any drawing. They are facing this problem with some dwgs, when anybody else opens the same drawing this happens again. After that they are unable to see the hatch patterns in any drawing. After using FILL it becomes visible but restrting the AutoCAD reverts the setting back so they unable to see the hatch pattern again. After opening that dwg in all files they are unable to hatch.
