Wall Style with True Color Solid Hatch Problem

[bgagan]

Hi,

Has anyone had any problems with true color solid hatch at wall cleanup areas? Specifically, going from autocad architecture 2018 (which displays correctly) to version 2021? 

The image with the black background is Autocad Architecture 2018. The white background shows the problem in version 2021. The darker filled areas print out as black, not as the true color gray (RGB 170,170,170). Please fill free to look at the drawing file.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Known display issue in 2021: no fix.

Thanks for the tip.

I guess staying away from using true color solid hatches in wall styles is something to keep in mind moving forward.

I am having the same problem.  Doesn't matter which setting I change or which printer I use.  

It does not happen in the same location on every drawing, but every drawing has this issue.

Is this only happening in wall fills or does it happen with space object displays as well?  We are still using 2020 so I cannot test on my side but am curious.  Have you tried using color 253 or an adjacent color and defining the associated pen in your ctb file as your grey?  We tried both true colors and screening and decided to use a screened black for our grey scale pens.  We use true color fills for "color" and have determined our grey steps using the 251-254. It doesn't solve or fix the issue with grey true colors but may solve your printing problem.

If you know this already, please disregard.

170/255=67% white so screening  33% of black should give you the same shade. 100% screening = black with a lower value equaling less black by percentage.
