Leader arrowheads not filled in 3D views but filled in 2D views WHY?

(OP)
Autocad 2000 - Building 3D models and my leaders arrowheads are set to closed filled.  They are filled when I view this drawing as 2D but they are blank when viewed in 3D.  I can't find any help text explaining this via local help and at Autodesk.

RE: Leader arrowheads not filled in 3D views but filled in 2D views WHY?

When hiding, FILL is off for arrowheads, polylines and such.  We use a custom arrowhead that has 4 or 5 lines to simulate a filled arrowhead.

Another option is place annotation in PAPERSPACE.
