Displaying Polylines, Hatches, and Text

The display performance of AutoCAD LT is improved when wide polylines and donuts, solid-filled polygons (two-dimensional solids), hatches, and text are displayed in simplified form. Simplified display also increases the speed of creating test plots.

Turning off Solid Fill

When you turn off Fill mode, wide polylines, solid-filled polygons, and hatches are displayed in outline form. Except for patterned hatches, solid fill is automatically turned off for hidden view and nonplan views in three dimensions.

Using Quick Text

When you turn on Quick Text mode in drawings that contain a lot of text using complex fonts, only a rectangular frame defining the text is displayed or plotted.

Updating the Display

New objects automatically use the current settings for displays of solid fill and text. To update the display of existing objects using these settings, you must use REGEN.
