change the transparency of it to YES.
Autocad will not allow me to change it to a transparency, and technically I want a solid, but one that has the same colour as the background. Hence a wipeout.
also, what shading are you using? You probably want 2d wireframe, but sometimes these things get changed. BTW what plot driver are you using?
I have used a wipeout to cover an area in an xref. The area in question is identical on 5 floors, but the sixth has a slightly different function. So I wiped out the room on the sixth floor and drew what I need over top. Wipe outs work great, and I have never had a problem with them before printing as a solid. Since I upgraded to 2006 my wipeouts are now being printed as a black solid. The area in question shows up fine in the plot preview, but when the plt file is made the area is a black rectangle.
