Creating Color-Filled Presentation Plans
In this exercise, you use a feature in AutoCAD Architecture called a display theme to rapidly create 2 different graphic
reports of the spaces on the floor plan. When you create each report, the space data is read, and the spaces fill with
color depending on the current report criteria. A legend that you place near the color-filled floor plan reports the space
data and matches it to the fill colors on the plan.
1 Create a display theme that identifies the spaces on the floor plan by type (Reception, Conference, etc.):
■ On the Getting_Started tool palette, click the Theme - Space Style - Commercial tool.
The display theme reads the space property set data on the objects in the drawing and prompts you
to place a legend in the drawing.
■ Specify a point above the room schedule to place the upper-left corner of the legend.
■ Press ENTER to place the legend at the current drawing scale.
The display theme style reports the spaces by commercial type. Color fills are automatically added to
the space plan according to rules set in the display theme style, and the legend displays the space data
that coordinates with the color fills. The color fills used by this display theme are identical to the colors
used by the space tools, but in the next step, you apply a display theme that uses different color fills.
