Just a quick question about something that's been bugging me for a while. I can draw objects I want in 3d no problems and then view them on screen in model and paper space easily. I can use the shade/render options to give the view I am looking for (mainly on paper space) but when it comes to plotting the 3D viewport always reverts to a 3d wireframe rather than what ever is displayed on screen (hidden faces, rendered etc..)

I know it is possible I am just missing something somewhere how I can get it to plot what I am looking at.

(using AC2000 btw)

TIA

Thats from Acad2009 but I remember its very similar in Acad2000. :)
 
Ah!... Hmmm I'm not sure... I've not used Acad2000 since about 2002.. so its very foggy!...

Have you had a look in the AutoDesk Forums?... they have 'rooms' dedicated to almost every flavour of AutoCAD over the years!.. and their very helpful over there!!
