Help with Visual Styles

Anonymous
Not applicable

I am having an issue with my "Conceptual" style.  I am not sure if the problem is happening with any other style because I pretty much run all of them in defaults.

 

The issue I am having is that the visual style is not saving.  Any changes I make only pertain to the current dwg I am working in.  I am trying to make my edge lines black instead of white.  When I save the dwg, close out and go to a new dwg, the edges are white again.  Is there a way to retain setting dwg to dwg?

 

Any help would be super awesome!

 

Thanks,

Marc

Im not certain you can pull it off like you are looking to do. 

 

"Any changes you make to the current visual style are saved in the drawing."

If you are working with creating drawings i would set up your template with the visual style you want. 

 

If its a retrofit you will have to apply the styles per drawing. you may be able to whip somehting up with a lisp, but it might be just as easy to import the style from another drawing or add the style to a tool palette as in this article.

Well that makes me a little sad, but I suppose it makes sense.  I'll just update my template and move on!  Thanks for the help!
