Good Morning all,

I have a question about printing existing pipe. Did some searches but never found anything. When I go to plot a 3D model that's show existing, the plan shows the lines for that pipe solid, and not phantom like the existing lines are shown in the model.

I've changed the linetypes to several other types, but to no avail. It only seems to plot correctly if I change the linetype setting in the plot styles table. Then it will plot correctly. If I leave that linetype setting to 'Use object lintype', it will plot solid.

Any ideas?

You got it. I forgot to mention I'm plotting in paperspace as well. The viewport shows the existing lines as they should be, but plots as a solid line. The linetype in the plot style is set to 'Use Object Linetype'.

Yup, that's the problem I'm having as well. I have to change the linetype in the plot styles to get it to work. Thanks, Matt.
