Print RGB layer/object in greyscale (while having other colors)

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I'm having some doubts on how to work with RGB colors in AutoCAD.

I have a drawing which has layers with an RGB color defined.

For example, the vegetation layer has a green 56,144,19. At the same time, I have other layers with a simple color (e.g. walls layer in color 10). 

Is there any way of printing the RGB in greyscale while having the simple color (walls in my case) printed in red?

Thank you,

Only by using 'named plotstyles' = STB Plotstyletables

Only RGB-LAYERS? and the object color is ByLayer?

Then you can change the color of these layers per viewport in your Layout!

Layer TEST, color 56,144,19

in your Layout Viewport(s), change the VP COLOR to 8 for example

You can use color overrides inside the viewport, simply change the layer color with true color to a grey value in the "VP-color" column (inside the viewport, inside the layer-manager).
