    Hi,
    Is it possible to plot model space viewports grayed out (50%) and
    keeping the paper space items plotting as solid (100%)? I'm trying to
    plot out a site plan grayed out and keep all the title block and notes
    solid black.

    Thanks

  3. hi
    my name is frezly
    iam working for depa interiors in dubai

    my solution might be rectify ur doughts
    and my point is

    if u want to print the dwgs on model space in 50%screening and print
    the dwgs on layout in 100% screening.
    can u do one thing
    thing is
    have u created any ctb (plot style)files for ur autocad
    if not u have to creat.if so open the ctb file which u using.after
    open go to "FROM VIEW" tab
    in that u can see the color table in ur left side
    and other lot of details on ur right side
    and select the color which u want to screening
    after selecting the color,in ur right side of the dialogue box u can
    see a "SCREENING" option.on there u can edit how much screening u
    want.

    this is for only one ctb files.
    if u want to plot the dwgs which in model on 50%screening,u will have
    to create a seperat ctb file for model tab.
    and
    u want to plot the dwgs which in layout on 100% screening.u will have
    to create another ctb file

    if u create only one ctb file,,, the ctb file that u made is for
    model and layout space.
    ie one ctb file is applicable for both model and layout.or u can creat
    two ctb files,one for model and one for layout ok
    just try it
