Hidden Legacy not diplaying smooth surfaces when plotting

[Anonymous]

I am using 2012 Architecture and when plotting layouts it is converting curved surfaces into liniar hatched messes, can anyone out there help we with this, my office just converted to 2012 from 2006, and the new software is driving me nuts. 

am using legacy hidden with monochrome.

I just wanted to see if anybody has found out why this happens. I have 2013 autocad and all of my plots with legacy hidden look like this now (see attached). Please Help!! I'm sure this has to be a simple setting.

I finally found it. If anybody else runs into this, you have to check the box for "Draw tru silhouettes for solids and surfaces" in the display perfromance section of the options dialog box.

The solution to my plotting problems! thank you, this worked where all those variables posted in other sites didn't!

Legend this works now it just does not show extra line if a part has a curved edge any ideas?

Change the number of lines to display on curved surfaces, and it should work.

Hi @Anonymous 

Thank you, I tried changing the Contour lines per surface to 20 and still has 1 line missing on structural profile?

Please advise if this is the setting you are talking about?
