Won't Show Viewports in 'Realistic' Shade Plot


Recommended Posts

Posted

Okay, I'm having issues. Take a look below at my viewports and take the following into consideration:

 

AutoCAD 2012- CADPipe 12.0

Viewports are 2D Wireframe

Shade Plot is set to Realistic

Bottom right-hand viewport has been 'clipped'

All viewports have been '3d-Clip'ed

All text is done in Paperspace

All files have been X-reffed into a plot tab drawing (over 20 files)

I've created 15 other tabs using the same layout as this one with no issues

 

Preview shows all viewports, but when it prints, only the left two come out and parts of the other two.

 

 

 

This is how it looks in my Paperspace Tab.Paperspace Viewport Layout.jpg

 

This is how it's SUPPOSED to look, and looks in 'Print Preview'.Print Preview.jpg

 

This is what comes out after I print. Final Print.jpg

 

Never had this problem before. Can't figure out why it's not printing the two to the right. Viewports are set to 'on' and 'display viewport objects'. All pipe is in te same layer (just on seperate drawings). All are set to printable.

 

I'm stumped. Please help!!

Generally speaking, in my experience, if plot preview is correct and the plot is incorrect, the problem is usually with the printer/printer settings.

 

Can you post a portion of the file that is doing this?

I can post the file, but you will see no pipes. They are x-reffed in from multiple different files. Basically, each floor is a seperate file and I' creating an Isometric View of the storm riser from the Tunnel Level thru the MER on Level 9. Follow? So really all you could check were the viewport settings. Maybe I'll have another designer try to open and print....

Welcome to the forum. :)

You can create a copy, and bind in a few of the xrefs, so that we can see those too.
