I seem to have just encountered a slight bug which is present in both V8i SS4 and CONNECT. Whilst creating my new employers logo, I started by creating a normal string of text, scaled to the desired size and then dropped it with the Drop Element tool. The resultant shapes are now grouped holes/regions. I wanted to then view on their outlines so I ensured the display style was set to wireframe and turned off area fill in the view attributes yet the area fill in the grouped holes remain visible. This I believe is a bug. If I change the fill from opaque to none and then back to opaque, the grouped holes honour the rules of the view attributes as I would expect.
Apologies if this has been found already.
