Table Of Contents
Specifies whether object transparency is plotted. This option should only be
used when plotting drawings with transparent objects.
IMPORTANT For perfomance reasons, plotting transparency is disabled by default.
To plot transparent objects, check the Plot Transparency option. This setting can
be overridden by the PLOTTRANSPARENCYOVERRIDE on page 2473 system variable.
By default, the system variable honors the setting in the Page Setup and the Plot
dialog boxes.
Plot with Plot Styles
Specifies whether plot styles applied to objects and layers are plotted.
Plot Paper Space Last
Plots model space geometry first. Paper space geometry is usually plotted
before model space geometry.
Hide Paper Space Objects
Specifies whether the HIDE operation applies to objects in a paper space
viewport. This option is available only from a layout tab. This setting is
reflected in the plot preview, but not in the layout.
Drawing Orientation
Specifies the orientation of the drawing on the paper for plotters that support
landscape or portrait orientation.
Portrait
Orients and plots the drawing so that the short edge of the paper represents
the top of the page.
Landscape
Orients and plots the drawing so that the long edge of the paper represents
the top of the page.
Plot Upside-Down
Orients and plots the drawing upside-down.
Icon
Indicates the media orientation of the selected paper and represents the
orientation of the drawing on the page as a letter on the paper.
NOTE The orientation of plots is also affected by the PLOTROTMODE system
variable.
