Maybe someone can help me - I'm trying to use a Solid Fill Pattern for my New Construction Phase, but can't figure out how to have the walls show up at 60% or 80%, or for that matter anything less than 100% black. Is there a way to have a gray fill pattern? The SOLID fill is not editable, unlike the others. Thanks much.

not sure i understand this question, but filled regions have a lot of options, maybe investigate it further. but it sounds like you might be wanting to control whole aspects of parts of the view. i suggest you look hard at phase filters and their over rides, plus object styles, both globally and by view. help is really helpful - search on these topics and you might find your answer.

Thanks for the reply. This question doesn't concern Filled Fegions specifically: regardless of whether it's a Filled Region or a Phase Graphic Override, for any FILL PATTERN the SOLID option is not editable. It comes out solid black. That's a nice option and I use it a lot. However, what I am looking to do is make the fill pattern on the walls be gray, or as AutoCAD puts it 80% Shade (or 20%, or 40%, etc.). So I tried using a regular, editable pattern - like CROSSHATCH - with a tighter spacing of the pattern. Unfortunately this doesn't print, coming out just plain white. It looks like there needs to be a new Pattern created for a Gray SOLID, and I wondered if anyone had anything like that already. Maybe I need to post to the Wishlist forum. Because it's not possible to edit the original SOLID, I wonder if the only way to get it is thru AutoDesk. Thanks again for any help.

I had just posted the message above when I turned back to the problem and solved it. I missed something obvious. It's really easy - all i had to do was change the color of the Fill. It is so easy that I am embarrased. Thanks. Hopefully this posting will help others.

so glad you worked it out. i should have suggested the colour option, but i figured you had tried that! revit has depths within depths, and it can be frustrating sometimes. your post will definitely help others.
