I'm trying to change a solid fill colour to solid white. I don't seem to have problems changing a solid fill to any other colour but for some reason when I select 'White' from the 'colour' drop down list and choose 'white' the fill turns solid black.
I have attached an image to demonstrate this.
Solid fill 'B' should be white and not black.
Many thanks,

Re: Change a fill colour to solid white?
Fantastic, that helped.
There are occasions where I need to have white solid fills when working using a white background.
I have found that in an example of a window on elevation, drawing the window and then putting a blank 'masking' background behind it and making a block of the two can save considerable time when drawing elevations. If the window is placed over a brick hatch and then I decide to change the location of the window, I can just drag it or move it into place. The alternative with hatches / islands etc., would be to move the window and then spend more mouse clicks adjusting hatch boundaries.
A really good alternative compared to the 'Autocad' procedures. Autocad die-hards, will raise their hands in horror about this but I found this a time saver when using other CAD systems.
I've changed my app preferences now, thank you.
I would also like to thank you for your time in writing and developing this application.
