Getting frustrated need pointed in right direction on corridor code set styles

Ok I have approx. 150 cross sections and need to change the color of the line work for the corridor sections. I am using the "Code with Labels" style. I have been digging for the last couple of hours and can not find where to change the color of the line work.

 

I have done this before in a previous project and have it set up the way I want it, but apparently you can not copy code styles from one project to another. I tried

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can drag n drop code set styles from drawing to drawing or use Import Style and Settings (Manage Tab).

 

You will want to edit the Link Styles within the Code Set Style. It is important that you know which Links your Subassemblies use.

Make sure you drag in any Link, Marker, and Shape codes used by the CodeSet, then drag the CodeSetStyle.

 

To Drag, make sure both drawings are open, with the Target drawing the active one. In Toolspace, Settings, makes sure the top option is set to Master View, then scroll to the Source drawing and find the Object to copy, select it and drag it into the drawing canvas of the Target drawing.

The Link style is what displays the Linework.

Hi @Anonymous / Dave,

 

I know you don't like videos without CC so I will post an image guides instead. Things you need to watch out would be draw order of Link codes and surface on top of corridor links. Guide images below will show step by step.

Thanks guys. I have the colors changed on all the codes.  The Code link was the key. All though I was doing it right, it turns out there are other lines overriding the ones I modified.

I also have this fixed in my template file and typed out some notesMan LOL
