Procedure

Quick Reference

To set the current plot style

1. Click Home tab Properties panel Plot Style.
2. In the Current Plot Style dialog box, select a plot style from the list.

   The plot styles displayed are those available in the current plot style table.

3. To select a plot style from a different plot style table, under Active Plot Style Table, select a plot style table.

   The list of plot styles changes to those in the selected plot style table.

4. To edit the selected plot style table, click Editor. Change settings as necessary. Click Save & Close.
5. Click OK.

   The plot style that you made current is used for any new objects created in the drawing.

   You can change the current plot style only if the drawing uses named plot style tables. If the drawing uses color-dependent plot style tables, change the color to alter the plotted appearance of objects and layers.

   NoteThe current plot style property can be set to BYLAYER to inherit the plot style of the current layer.
