[arriscad] Assigning multiple penmaps to a Viewport

[Jeff George]

I did check the penmap and it looked fine.   I originally made that
penmap, and it probably hasn't been used in a long time... since last
time I used it.   It did actually work before though.   I recall the
problem I had at the time was that the layers I wanted halftoned were
clipped "Searchable", and once I clipped them as 'Displayable", it
worked.

 

Might try an older spin of Arris to see if something changed....

 

Jeff Clarke.... we use an Oce TDS 600.   I looked briefly at the
settings, and couldn't find anything about that.

    And you're sure your hafltone pen map (.pm) is accurate, right?
Just to make sure, try viewing the halftone penmap
    settings (i.e. pen weights) from the Plotter/Penmap Setup menu again
to make sure they didn't get reset.

Yes.   I actually re-cut the viewports again in model space, and
replaced them on the sheet.   No luck.

After changing the halftone layers to display only, you *did* apply
layer modes to 'all in viewport' right?

	I have done this before, but can't seem to get it to work.   I
am trying to have my entities that are clipped in the viewport as
"Displayable Only" print in halftone, and the stuff clipped as
"Editable" print with their full pen weights.

	 

	In Sheet space, I select the Viewport menu, and under the
"PENMAP ASSIGNMENT BY LAYER" category, I load my halftone penmap, and
assign it to the viewport on my sheet, then save.   But..... for
whatever reason, Arris doesn't seem to recognize it?   When I query the
viewport... it indicates that both the full and halftone penmaps are
assigned?

	 

	Anyone know what might be wrong?   I'm on V9.4, Spin #128
Thanks.
