Hi,
I have 3D model which was prepared by someone else. I work on AutoCAD 2013. Problem is when I change plot style for example in monochrome it doesn't change colours in layout, the same thing when I change colours in viewports, they remain as they are defined in layers.
Does anyone know what can block changing colours?
Thanks

1. CTB plot style tables.
2. Yes. "doesn't change colors in layout" is what I see on preview
I noticed one more thing, when I changed plot style it works for objects which I added on layouts (dimensions, text) but it doesn't work for things in viewports.
Once you start using visual styles you must control them through VISUALSTYLES manager. Once you get the properties the way you like for a particular visual style you will want to drag and drop that onto a tool palette so you will always have it ready to apply again. The changes will not be held in the VISUALSTYLES manager from session to session.
Edge settings will be a good place to start experimenting with the color changes inside the VISUALSTYLES manager.
