Monochrome display only in layout - why?

[mciarrocca]

I have a drawing file in which all devices, lines, etc. appear as the color black when in Layout. If switched to Model space, colors appear as intended. Anything added in in Layout also appears black. Any ideas on how to change the layout display to indicate colors?

Check this:

Right click on your layout tab, select PAGE SETUP,
select PLOT DEVICE tab, check if your PLOT STYLE is set to "Monochrome.ctb" and your DISPLAY PLOT STYLES box (just to the right) is checked. Checking and unchecking the DISPLAY PLOT STYLES box will enforce/remove the listed plot style to your view. Uncheck it to get your color back.

Hope this helps.

But how do we do to do the same for everything IN the viewport...? like the main drawing in it. I'm not able to print monochrome even whan I export it in PDF...

Have a little problem here !
