A
MPolygon objects are custom entities defined in Autodesk Map (and Land Desktop, Civil 3D). They serve primarly for representation of multi-part polygons (e.g. imported from .SHP files). This object has also the Fill property.

You can set the type and color of the interior Fill (independently on the MPolygon outline/border color) using the Properties window (Ctrl+1, the Pattern section). To completely suppress (switch off) the fill, use the POLYDISPLAY command and its "Edges" option, and regen your drawing.
