background color of a rectangle

Hi,

due to librecad ease of use and your help, in two days I could build a complex drawing. It is mainly a lot of rectangles. To visually separate one another, I use hatches. But is it possible to 'color' the inside of a rectangle instead of using hatch ?

I set a chechbox in the hatch window but the color is only white ... and I would like 'light grey' !

TIA
Jean

Thanks,
I'll try that this week-end ...

BYTW what explained 'Aussie' is what I am thinking and doing : LibreCAD is wonderful and I use it for my hobby : 'model railroad' (in fact the table where I'll will build it).

HI,

Mad-hatter, I couldn't find the 'create hatch' tool !!

Grherr, it worked for me too. Thanks.

I have a 'wish' : being able to 'color' with a RGB value (ie 128,10,96) !!!

Best Regards

In the attributes checkbox choose "Custom" for the colour, an other checkbox will come up where you can set RGB values.

Hi Dellus,

it works like a charm !!

Thank you.
