Suggestion - Re: Drawing / Project Settings Updates

I often run into situations where a drawing setting is changed and this setting should have been copied to the project settings.  I realize there's a "Settings Compare" function, but this function becomes arduous to run on every drawing.

 

AutoDesk,

 

Please set up a "monitor" function that checks for drawing / project setting differences automatically.  The user could then be asked if they want the drawing setting applied to the entire project.  Once those differences are acknowledged and accepted, the system would ignore them until a setting is changed again.

Use settings compare and click to force the project properties to match the drawing properties of the drawing with properties you prefer. Next, from the Project Manager, select all drawings in your project using Shift or Ctrl. Right-click over any drawing that was selected and select Properties. From this flyout menu choose to Apply Project Defaults.
