Switch the Type of Plot Style Table
You can change which type of plot style table, color-dependent or named, is
used in a drawing.
You can use CONVERTPSTYLES to change which type of plot style table,

When you convert a drawing from using color-dependent plot style tables to
using named plot style tables, any color-dependent plot style tables attached
to layouts in the drawing are removed, and named plot styles are attached in

style tables after you convert to using named plot styles tables, you should
first convert any color-dependent plot style tables to named plot style tables.
