Wipeout does not work consistently

Wipeout does not work consistently

Wipeout does not work consistently

(OP)
Hi, this one has me stumped.  I have a drawing with two items that use the wipeout command in the same viewport.  One of the items (a diamond shape) wipesout fine when plotting, the other, a little more complex shape, does not wipeout.  It will view correctly in paperspace but won't preview or plot correctly.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks

Have you Bring to Front  it?

In the Draw Order command Bring to Front the shape.

(OP)
yes, I played with the drawing order, I played with it being a block or not.  I drew both objects the same, one printed with wipeout one did not.  The only difference I can think of is that one object was something I drew in SolidWorks and imported to Autocad.  The other was a native Autocad drawn object.  There must have been some sort of weird artifact left over from the conversion.  Thanks for the help.
