Why are my paper space objects white?

Do you have a situation where all your objects in paper space (layout tab) are white? Your objects are on layers with different colors and they're all bylayer. The problem lies within your current page setup.
  • Set your layout tab current. Right Click on the tab itself and press Page Setup Manager...

  • Press Modify

  • Uncheck "Display plot styles"

Thanks for the Post. This one was new to me, and it scared the crap out of the engineer.

Sir you are a saint. I thought I was going insane for the past year and a half on a certain project. I inherited it from one of our "bad drafters" and would curse his existence due to this problem...

Glad I found your post. I must have had a drawing that I inherited properties from. It was so frustrating. Thanks again.

Another thank you! We got it (as if it were a disease) from another company and knew it was something they must use that we don't.
