There is no VectorWorks 9.6. Are you using VectorWorks 9.5.2? These sound like display problems that were fixed in VW 9.5.3. You can find the updater to VW 9.5.3 at: http://www.nemetschek.net/downloads/vectorworks/index.html

If you are using 10.1.5 or later, this was a problem created between 10.1.4 and 10.1.5.

YOu should update to 9.5.2 if you are using 10.1.5, and 9.5.3 if you are using 10.2.1 or later.

This will not fix the text and other objects already in the drawing.

You can do two things --

First, if it's only a few objects, you can delete them and redraw them.

Otherwise, you will need to select the object and change it to another color in the attributes palette, solid and pen color. Then change it back to something else and it should then work.

Sometimes objects with a class attribute assigned to them will not change. If that is the case, you may either need to delete the class attribute assignment and recreate it, or delete the objects themselves and redraw them.
