Question CAD
% platform category

	My AutoCAD does not display solid hatches and fills.
	If your DWG drawing doesn't show solid hatches and fills, first of all check the `FILLMODE` variable. If this variable is On and if other hatch types are displayed properly, the possible cause of this problem can be the visual style with hidden lines which you may have set inadvertently (see `VISUALSTYLES` or `SHADEMODE`). Another cause may be an incompatible graphics card or its driver.
