Can you select it in the model itself?

I am not sure. I can select it from the mini tool bar on the top of the drawing window

My guess the view has a cross section. You can't shade a view with a cross section added.

    Hi @JW_10714096 

     

    I think below is the only option to enable disable shaded views in drawing.

    Please check again in your config file. Set above config to Yes.

    Hi,

    please do following test:

    • create new General View in drawing
    • click View Display option in left pane
    • set Display style to Shading

    Notes: 

    • General View enables you to set Display style to Shading
    • some other view types does not enable you Display style to Shading ... what view type do you use?
