Polylines not filled...

Polylines are being filled in but according to FILLMODE they are being filled in for both new and existing drawings.

 

Although some drawings that I open with PLines are showing them filled in and I can't find the difference between them.

 

Any ideas?

Hi,

 

Are you still having problems with the Fillmode system variable?  When you state that FIllmode shows that pline objects are shown as filled, are you saying that all your drawings existing and new have the variable set to (1)?

 

Can you post an example drawing, one with expected behavior and one with unexpected behavior?

 

Cheers!

Volker

Attached is a DWG of an existing file with the issue.  Yes, FILLMODE is set to (1).

 

I can't seem to find the new DWG that I had the issue with and I can't recreate the issue as any new DWG I start now does not seem to have this issue.

 

My guess is that it has to do with specific drawings because other users have this issue with existing drawings too.

 

Thanks.

Thanks for supplying the drawing file try the following from the command line:


Command: plan
Enter an option [Current ucs/Ucs/World] <Current>: w
Regenerating model.

 

If this works please mark the solution as solved. Cheers!

That worked, thanks.

 

Is there a known cause that we can try to avoid in the future?

Sorry, I have looked and there is no known issue in regards to a product defect. It could be a start up LISP routine or third party application or user input. Wish I could give you a better answer.

 

Cheers!

Accidently pressing the middle mouse button and moving the mouse while the 'Shift' aad 'Alt' keys are held down throws the drawing out of World Space.
