Hi,
I turned on fill in View Settings because an opaque shaded area I placed was not showing its fill, nor was it letting me turn it on in Element Properties. Fine, that much worked. But now every time I place a closed SmartLine it creates an opaque fill. Then I have to select every one, go to properties, remove its fill.
Is there a setting that I can use so that fill is not automatically created for closed SmartLines, shapes, whatever? Or is all that extra work normal?
thanks.

Mine is by default set to none for opauqe settings and after I created my shape I just change the fill attribute in element properties this also allows me the extra option to set one colour for the outline and a different colour for the fill.. ie black out line coloured file also have transparency if I want it...
I also use the place polygon more often than smart line for shapes.... or if need be create regions by flood for larger irregular areas like in mapping...
