Author Colors have disappeared. I'm left with outlines
Mark R

2004-12-20, 7:14 am

One of my files recently lost all of its visual colour information and now
is just a collection of vector outlines. I'm a bit confused, I don't think
that i've clicked something which did this. Has anyone any ideas? The shapes
still seem to have colour information it's just that the colour
information's not visible.

Can anyone give any advice of how to get my colours back please.

Mark

Answer:
Click the View Menu and then click Preview in that dropdown menu.
This will take it out of Outline Display Mode
