i have 3 sets of wire types that i would like to display on a schematic. basically factory,field,option, each type of wire has its own wire layer and line type. so its red_factory with a solid line type, red_field is phantom, red_option is dot dot dash. the wire layers are named red_factory, red_field, red_option, the issue i am having is the end user of the schematic doesn't care what the layer is called. on the print wire numbers show up as 1/red_factory and so on. i would like all 3 to only show sequential number/red and have the line type distinguish to the end user what type of wire it is.
i know i can make just 1 layer per color i need and manually change the line type on a per wire basis but i would like to automate things like that on my end.
the other way is to make the layer name format be %C%S but then i have 3 red wire layers that on my end all show up looking the same on the layer list.
in my create/edit wire type box i have everything configured and im using %C_%1 as my layer name format. %1 being my factory,option,etc designation.
in my drawing properties im using %N%G as my wire number format. %G being wire layer name replaceable parameter. i dont know of any other parameters to try.
