White overprint elements still visible under overprint preview

[jia_7070]

Dear Experts,

I meet one issue that white overprint is not working.

Below element was ticked for "Overprint fill",

But when I view it under Overprint preview, the element is still there.

only when I click, click, click to the deepest layer, it disappear.

Could you please explain how to avoid this issue?  I just want it should be invisible under overprint view for the items I ticket as overprint fill. Thank you

Best Regards,

Zhang Jia

Can you share a file that shows the problem? It is difficult to replicate.

Save the file as PDF (or rename the .ai file to .pdf) to attach the file to a message in this forum.

Thanks jia_7070, when ungrouping the white arrow, the overprint attribute starts to behave.

I wonder how you got the multiple grouped object, I cannot replicate your problem because I can only group once.

To the second group level there is Isolate Blending applied in the Transparency palette.

If you turn off Isolate Blending for that group level, it should behave as you want (though the white fill is a spot colour and one could argue that showing the white fill in Overprint Preview may rather be desired).
