Polyline Help
(OP)
My plines are displaying in paperspace and plotting as wireframes but display correctly in model space. How can I make them display with normal solid fill?

RE: Polyline Help
I have checked through my settings and have found a few that you might want to check on your system. They are:
FILLMODE = 1
PLINEGEN = 0
PLINETYPE = 2
SPLFRAME = 0
If you type in the text shown above on your command line, and then check the default setting, OR set it to the values that I have (listed above) that may help you get what you need.
Hope this helps,
Paul

You can jump into the vport from pspace, draw a pline and it displays wireframe...go directly into model space and the same pline displays solid.
Now here's the kicker. When I create a new layout, everything dispays as it should....SOLID! I guess this is the easy fix but I'd love to figure out what the heck is going on with the other vports/tabs.

Polylines with width will not preview or plot filled if Hide Plot is set to Yes.
To set Hide Plot to No:
1. Enter mview on the command line.
2. Enter h to select the Hideplot option.
3. Type off to disable the Hideplot option.
4. Select the border of the viewport(s) that the HIDE command will affect.
5. Press ENTER to complete the command.

linetype : use object linetype
lineweight : use object lineweight
fillstyle : use object fillstyle
screening : 100 (if you want the plot to be lighter set this to 70 or 80)
This should help you plot thick lines without a problem.
If you are using pen plotter - let me know I will tell you what else you can try.
