Stevenplane Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'm sure this is really easy but can't find it anywhere...how do I toggle off the colors in elevation views so that they only appear as B&W line drawings? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenplane Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Magic! It didn't change it in the layout though. I guess I have to resend it to layout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenplane Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 And for some reason, this one section of roof still displays in color even after F8: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Quote It didn't change it in the layout though. I guess I have to resend it to layout? For elevations and cad details, yes. If you are sending floor plan views, and you are using saved plan views, you can also change the color on/off setting in the saved plan view specification dialog.

My best guess is that you have a very dense pattern that is making it look solid black. If this is not the case, you will probably need to post the plan so that some one can help you figure it out. Or, if all else fails, contact tech support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I would print in grayscale not black and white, you need to check the box " color off is grayscale" in preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenplane Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 I attached a zip of the file. Please don't judge me...lol. I don't work in the software very often. That roof section is the same pitch as the ones adjacent to it so I have no idea why it's showing up so dark. Also, the only way I could get it to send to layout in B&W was to send it "current screen as image" and then just resized it to fit. I have no idea what scale it ended up as though. Not a problem in this instance as it's just for their lender to do an updated appraisal for their construction loan.

Please be sure to save the file and close chief before uploading to the forum. It would likely be best to do a backup of the Plan and Layout files from layout if we need to look at both files.
