Autocad color changes in drawing into another

[arunag]

Dear experts,

Autocad on my computer is showing different colors on drawing area and on properties or layer manager.

If cyan is chosen in layer properties, by layer followed, it displays yellow in drawing.

All colors are different, shows correctly in properties or layer manager, but draws different color on model space. What could be the reason. Please help.

Hi,

which version of AutoCAD (command _ABOUT) and which graphic card (command _GRAPHICSCONFIG)

Also please try with command _GRAPHICSCONFIG to turn off hardware acceleration ... better?

select all (ctrl+a) and use the command "SETBYLAYER" to set the color of the object as per the layer.

If this doesn't solve your problem please post a screenshot or attach the drawing so that we can help.

Hi,

i'm afraid that your drawing elements are NOT bylayer colored !!! you may need to check that ? can we have A CAD drawing sample please ?

Yes it worked after acceleration got off. Thanks.

Hi,

>> Yes it worked after acceleration got off.

In that case you either need updating AutoCAD and/or the graphic card driver (that's why I was asking for details about AutoCAD version and graphic card information).

But good to know we found the source of the issue!
