I have a project with a bunch of curtain walls being used as chainlink fences.  The system panel does not plot it's crosshatched pattern when transparency is turned on.

Any ideas what's going on?  This is in Frustration 2013

One idea, and its a temporary work around, but have you tried plotting to PDF, and then plotting to paper with the PDF?

I've heard of this error before and I can't for the life of me remember where it was, revitforum.org or augi.com forums.

Its fixable.  It might be a crosshatch model vs. drafting lines issue.  Have you tried using the actual chain link material for the individual panels?

Also, you could probably use a repeating line based family instead of a curtain panel system for the chain link fence.  6'-0" x 6'-0" with a post, right?
