    I am having some trouble with solid filled objects in my background. The background layers are all set to color 252 so they are subdued. This works fine for text and regular lines.
    Polylines, arrowheads, custom symbols filled with a solid hatch pattern, etc. come out 2 shades too dark even though they are on the same layer.
    For example I have to set a polyline color 253 to have it plot the same shade s a regular line beside it set to 252.
    Is there some kind of a setting in AutoCAD that affects fill gradients or patterns ?
