David S Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Happy New Year all. I am playing with the AEC/Create objects from shapes/ tool (who knew!) and created a polygon and converted it to a slab. In open GL and "giving it swirlage" as we say here (spinning it round) it was ok (white colour and useable ) but when I revert to top plan it goes grey? Any idea why? (I tried the components but it didnt change)?? Many thanks D Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi David, Is that the original polygon you have selected there that's grey or is that the slab? Wes Quote Link to comment
David S Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi Wes its the slab (which turned grey when it became a slab....) Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi David, Is the slab in a class with a grey texture? Can you post a small file where this happens? Wes Quote Link to comment
David S Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 No I tried classes , didnt seem to make a difference.... Quote Link to comment

Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted January 9, 2019 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 9, 2019 Is the document at 1:1 scale? If you zoom in is it just that the hatching making it look grey? Do you have that spaces style fill as grey? Quote Link to comment
David S Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Thats odd when I do this in a new file its ok! But when I take an existing file select the existing floor, take its polygon and recreate this as a slab it goes grey. Also when I create a polygon in the existing file the slab goes grey too?? All polys on "None" class white fill . Hmmm.... Quote Link to comment
David S Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Aha Just attempted the same thing with a file definitely created in VW2019 and it's ok. The file behaving oddly was definitely created in 2018..... Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi David, Sometimes a restart is necessary to clear up gremlins... Wes Quote Link to comment
David S Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 I agree Wes . Gonna play around with this more tomorrow but I won't feed VW after midnight...... Nice feature..... Quote Link to comment
