Polygon Fill Disappearing

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 17 years ago

Is there any way to ensure that the filled area inside a polygon remains

filled once you save and close a file and then reopen it.

I have a ground plane that disappears once you open the file and the

Ratsnest button needs to be used again to fill the polygon. The polygon is

always in the correct position just the filled area has disappeared.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Andrew

    That is normal. Only outline of a polygon is the only part saved not the

    fill which could would make the saved file very large. It has to be

    regenerated when you open a file or do a run a cam process.
