Change Properties Guidelines
■ Make sure that you display the Layers and Properties panels. If they are not visible, right-click in
the Home tab of the ribbon to turn them on.
■ Be sure the Command line is blank, then use the window or crossing selection to quickly select one
or more objects to view or change their properties.
■ If you select the wrong object, just press SHIFT and select it again to remove it from the selection
set.
■ When you select more than one object with different properties, the field in the property option
will be blank. This is because only one property can be listed at a time.
■ You can select more than one object and choose a property that you want to assign to all of the
objects selected.
■ Object properties should be determined by the layer (ByLayer) whenever possible.
■ Linetypes not shown in the list can be loaded into the drawing.
■ Be sure the Lineweight display option is on in the status bar and adjust the lineweight display in
the Settings dialog box.
Object Selection
Remember to press the ESC key after you complete each change and before you select
more objects. This prevents accidental changes to the properties of previously selected
objects.
