Edit Band Style for multiple profiles

AllenJessup · ‎08-01-2023

I have about 40 profile views that ended up with the wrong Band Style. Is there a way to change the style in multiple profile view at the same time?

Shooting from the hip since it wasn’t obvious in the prospector , that you edit the current band to be what you want.

what if you have a spare dwg with the band you want. Rename it to the one in use then import it

interesting. By using the enter key to repeat the command and OK out of the dialog box. I've managed to change almost all of them since I posted, I'll bookmark this in case I ever have to do it again.

I think it is sad that this is not possible via the interface. It can be done using the API, I did some tests last year. The band set can be applied, and the profiles for the bands can be set as well. But sadly the result was unstable, some of the bands did not appear, although in the properties panel they were set and from that point the whole profileview was buggy. But maybe that was the result of my amateurism.

Unfortunately, there is no direct way to change the Band Style in multiple profile views simultaneously in the current version of the software. You will need to make the changes individually for each profile view to ensure the correct Band Style. Alternatively, you may consider reaching out to the software support team to inquire about any possible workarounds or upcoming features that could help with bulk style changes in the future!

I was just drilling into the Band Set with LISP. You changed your existing profile views before I got decent code together. It looks time-consuming, so thanks!

Thanks. Once I got the rhythm down it didn't take much time. I'm tempted to ask why some were incorrect and some not. But that's not a rabbit hole I want to go down. Probably would turn out to be my fault anyway since it's my drawing. 😉

Im curious if the import would do it in one fell swoop
