solid fills disappear when visibility is grey?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, my reference file is a building with solid black for walls, when I switch the visibility of this reference to grey the wall fill disappears and turns into outlines only, very annoying as I want the building to be a lighter colour but retain the black fill of the walls.

Can anyone help me with this.

Cheers

You should be able to get that effect by altering the opacity of the referenced layer instead of switching it to grey. This is done in Tools > Organization > Design Layers, selecting the referenced layers, then clicking Edit and altering the Opacity setting.

Should maintain fill attributes but go lighter and semitransparent.
