Hello there. I think in the most recent releases of CATIA you can choose "raster" as an option in the drawing view property box. I think you can choose to see the assembly colors in here as well, but there might be some more options in the "Tools"-menu for drafting to do this... -Bjod

Hi there. The problem might be the mouse driver if you installed the ones that came with the mouse. Make sure you enable standard windows behaviour for the wheel/middle button. If this fails, try to uninstall the driver, and use the built in windows driver for the mouse. -Bjod
