Hi, I am sure this has been discussed before, but I believe it’s about time to prioritize the feature below or a possible workaround. We need to have an advanced dialogue for section style as well. A limitation is the one below: We work with a hidden-dark display mode, with black background. There…

Hello, testing version Version 3.9 RC1 i report that the issue with the color in layout with print preview on has been resolved. First using section styles from the layer options we have [Layout Print Preview OFF] [Layout Print Preview ON] [Layout Print Preview ON_1] So colors are displayed…

This might be rhino related. I reverted back to VA 3.8.1 version and test the initial file (print display.3dm) of this post only to find out that hatch are displayed black with print preview on, when they did not in the past. [im done with colors] Today a rhino update rolled out, which i accepted…

Hello Francesc, thank you for the update. Although i have updated to this latest version, i keep getting the message that a visualarq update is available click here blah, every time i start rhino and VA. I think this has happened before, only when i install a service release over a candidate relea…
