TechDraw Render Mode on new Freecad v.0.19 Release?

Post by Glovs »

Good Afternoon

Since the newest Freecad v.0.19 Release (version 0.19.24276), I am experiencing a misbehavior on the TechDraw render mode "fill" Option when trying to draw plans from the Arch workbenches section-cut. The solid cut-walls are not getting color-filled in the TechDraw anmyore, whereas in previus versions (up until and including the pre-release candidate (version 0.19.23578)) this has worked perfectly fine (see pictures attached).

On both Pictures, I am using the same file with the same settings. In the old version 0.19.23578, when I use the (Show Fill: true) with the (Render Mode: Wireframe) options on the TechDraw, ArchView Data-Panel, the solid walls get painted grey. In the new version 0.19.24276, this is not happening anymore.

Looks like a misbehavior in the new version.

Did a bit more research about the problem in the Arch / TechDraw.

It looks like there is something wrong with the Show-Fill-Option of the Arch/TecDraw module. It looks like its simply not doing the "grey coloring" as described in the wiki as "Show Fill" option = true (see picture below).


Guess 1: It is not doing the Grey-Coloring for cut objects in the Show Fill-option = true at all.
Guess 2: Might be possible that it is is doing the Color Fill for Cut Parts correctly, but its using white color instead of the grey color?

Picture as mentioned above from: https://wiki.freecadweb.org/TechDraw_ArchView

Is there anyone using Arch with TechDraw and is not experiencing this faulty behavior? Would be nice if anyone could get me some feedback :) Maybe I get a hint where to look for the error :)

Anybody any idea?
