I want to color an elevation, so in areas where I have hatch for siding or shingles, I have added solid fill. The solid fill overrides the background hatch on the screen and when I plot. I tried dithering the solid fill to 25% but no luck. I tried turning off both layers, then turning on the solid fill first and the other hatch second to see if the material hatch would come out on top on the screen, still no luck.
Is what I'm trying to do possible? Or do I have to export to some other program to render. I am not looking for anything very sophisticated, but I need to show more than just a solid color area.

You need to try DRAWORDER. Bring your solid fill to the back and whatever else to the front. Of course, if both are plotted the same color, you won't see much difference. Use solid fill in small amounts, only where you abolutely need it. Here's a lisp I called "Hatchback". It brings all leaders to the front and puts hatches in back.It will work real nice if you plot in color.
