Pale colours don't display

[mairh_tsek]

Hello all,

In the site floor plan the pale colours that I have give in the walls don't display in 'shading'. When I change the colour view to consistent colours, the colour in the walls dispay correctly, but all the others colous not.

Is there someone that can help me with this?

Thank you in advance!

Check Graphic Display Options>Lighting, try adjusting the Lighting--Sun, Ambient Light values

@barthbradley , @cbcarch ,

 Hello,

I tried to adjust the values of lighting but the problem remains.

In the floor plan with the same settings the pale colours display correctly.

The problem is in the site plan.

Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance!

-Phasing/ Phase Filter of Site Plan view?

-Filters in Site Plan view?

-View Template/settings in Site Plan view?

-Any Cad imports/links turned on in Site Plan view?

-Color Scheme / foreground or background in Site Plan view?

I have checked all.

I assign the same view temlate that I have in floor plan (the colour of the walls is displayed correctly).

But in the site plan the colous doen't display.

Thank you in advance!

I'm surprised that a Floor Plan Template would even have the topography turned on in it. What's the visibility and graphic settings for Topography in the Floor Plan Template?

@barthbradley,

I just assigned in the site the view template that I have in floor plan , in order to see if the colours would display.. but the problem remains.

In the Graphics Display option in the site view, I tried to change the configuration of the Ambien Light and sun.. I manage to see the pale colous but more pale that they actually are...so it isn't work for me...

Is there something else that I can check?

Thank you!

Try adjusting the sun settings--day/time/year, azimuth/altitude angles, etc.

Try turning shadows on/off.

Try turning hardware acceleration off in Options>Graphics

FWIW @mairh_tsek: based on my experience, you'll never get an exact match.  Maybe I misunderstanding your particular issue though.

In Sun Settings, check which Level the Ground Plane is set to--normally it is at Level 1.

If this is set to another level--such as basement, it can cause the display to look different.

Hello,

I changed the Ground Plane at Level but nothing happened.

I post some images in order to show you better the problem.

Thank you for your time!

About this topic..

I didn't find any solution, why it is not possible in the site plan to have the same colour representation as I have in the Ground floor?

Thank you in advance!
