Gerber files problem (fill zone) [SOLVED]

664/5000
Good morning, I have a problem with gerber files.
I use version 4.0.6 with Windows XP 32bit and win7 64bit, but the problem does so with both operating systems.
After generating the files, if I open them with gerberview integrated with Kicad, it’s all normal and if I open them with another software I have the following issues:

  1. in 45° rotated components the pads are empty, only the contour exists
  2. If I create full areas, only the edges are visible without filling them
  3. in the electrolytic capacitors the semicircles become two rows

I hope some people will help me.
P.S. Sorry for my English, but I’m Italian
Thank you

You need to state which is your other sw you use to view the Gerber files. Some viewer may have bug…
A good viewer is the free Gc-prevue

What is the other software?

Is it possible that the software you use has an outline viewing mode? (If so switch to normal viewing mode)

Screenshot?

Windows XP is no longer supported by MS. You should update. (No more security updates are released.)

Good evening, thanks a lot to everyone!
I used the GerbV 2.3 software with XP, but I resolved installing GC-Prevue and win7 64 bit as recommended by you. All perfect!

Thanks bye
