Black blocks in paper space

I have two different blocks that show up in color in model space but are black in paperspace. I need the colors of the blocks to show and print in color in paperspace. A little frustrated.

Hi,

 

>> I need the colors of the blocks to show and print in color in paperspace

Hard to say what the reason is for your blocks as we don't have access to your drawing, your blocks, your layout/viewport, your layers, your ctb/stb, ...

 

Looking into the file would help a lot, otherwise guessing the most probably ones:

  • you have used a ctb/stb which has to show it black for their color or plot-style
  • the viewport might have layer color overrides

Hi @Anonymous, 

 

Enter each block from the block editor and change the color of the shading, selecting what you want from the TRUE COLOR tab, even if you choose to print in monochrome, the color remains.

That's if you do not want to depend on a ctb file.

 

I enclose the exercise on the screencast.

As @Alfred.NESWADBA mentioned, there are a bunch of ways this could have been done. Having the file to look into will help a lot.
