Accepted solution

This is because the color of Mtext is no ByLayer.

You can either using command SETBYLAYER to make the changes, or using attached CHZ20.vlx which is also able to remove any color overriding inside Mtext, settings as below.

Updated drawing in the attachment FYI.

You can select any object and change its Layer and its Color [to ByLayer] in the Properties box.  Or you can use the CHPROP command to change both of those Properties [and others], or the CHANGE command with the Properties option.  In AutoLISP terms:

 

(command "_.chprop" YourObject "" "_layer" YourTargetLayer "_color" "BYLAYER" "")
