What's the best way to ensure that all the drawings for my project are updated if I make changes to the Style settings on one of them? I've been putting every sheet into a single drawing file, but now I'm up to about 50 sheets and it takes about 40 seconds for each save, even if I only made a single minor change since the last save. I don't have any iLogic that could be causing this.
So I'd like to split the sheets up into multiple.dwgs, but I want changes I make my Styles to be reflected in all drawings. Can I create an "external" stye file that all drawings pull their style from? Or will I have to export/import to each drawing every time I make a change?
You should setup your styles the way you want them and save the settings within a template. Then each time you create a new drawing use this/these template(s) and those settings will come along for the ride.

Thanks for the reply, Cadmanto. This is my current workflow; however, I'm not perfect so my styles aren't set up just perfect. Every now and then I come across something I want to change in it. I was hoping there was a way to have "External" styles like we have "external" iLogic rules, so that my changes will be reflected in each drawing without me having to update each one manually.
So, basically you are looking to grandfather in the changes you make as you go.
If you do want to do this short of creating an iLogic rule to implement them, you could have the updated template open and then copy/paste/replace the updated TB or border into the old format.
