3d hatch to paper viewport

Hi,

In autocad 2018, I made a model in 3d modeling section, extracted the edges, added hatching. Back to Paper, add a viewport to show the 3d model. But the hatch doesn't show in Paper mode. Is this possible, thanks

Hi,

You wrote

<<<<In Paper mode I can't find a shading mode.>>> its inside your layout viewport. double click in viweport, MSPACE will active & command "SHADEMODE" (Attach 1).

 

1. Set Shademode= 2dwireframe

2. Turn OFF GRAPHICSCONFIG

You double-click inside the viewport.
You type SHADEMODE then hit <enter> on the keyboard to activate the command
Now you can make the changes suggested in post #7


FWIW If there is no "solved" tag, it is unsolved by default. That's how the forum posts work.
