Work with Colors
Color helps to group objects visually. You can assign colors to objects by layer
or individually.
Set the Current Color
You can use color to help you identify objects visually. You can assign the
color of an object either by layer or by specifying its color explicitly,
independent of layer.
Assigning colors by layer makes it easy to identify each layer within your
drawing. Assigning colors explicitly provides additional distinctions between
objects on the same layer. Color is also used as a way to indicate lineweight
for color-dependent plotting.
