3D printout

Does anybody know why I always get a 3D wireframe print out even though in
the model space it is flatshaded or hidden? Is there any setting that I need
to change so that I can print out real 3D image rather those crappy
lookthrough wireframes?? Thanks a lot

Yes there is. Where it is depends on your version.
It's usually somewhere in the print dialogue box. It
used to say "Hide Lines" or "Hide Objects".

 

Thanks for the reply. I checked "Hide Objects" in the print dialogue box but
it still print out wireframes. Any other ideas??

 

If you print layout space chek up "misc proprerties" in properties settings
of curent viewports. You need to set hidden shade plot or "as displayed"

I usually use the MVIEW command, select the vport, and select the Hideplot
option for the port.

 

That worked. Thanks!

 

viewport has a "hide plot" property.
