Quick Reference

To change an object's plot style

You can change an object's plot style only if the drawing uses named plot style tables. If the drawing uses color-dependent plot style tables, change the object's color to alter its plotted appearance.

1. Select one or more objects whose plot style you want to change.
2. Click Veiw tab Palettes panel Properties.
   TipYou can also right-click in the drawing area and then, click Properties.
3. In the Properties palette, select a plot style from the list of available plot styles. Click the column next to Plot Style.

   The plot styles listed are those already in use by objects and in the plot style table attached to the current layout.

4. To select a plot style from a different plot style table, select Other. In the Select Plot Style dialog box, you can attach a different plot style table to the current layout and select a plot style from that plot style table.
5. To edit the current plot style table, click Editor.
6. Click OK when finished.

   Any changes made in the Properties palette are immediate. If you change the plot style table attached to the current layout, both model space and paper space objects are affected.
