Change layer colours within a viewport

[mxpxh2o]

Hi guys, just wondering is there a way to change colours of layers within a viewport the same way you do with freezing layers in a viewport but still retain the original colourings in the model space?

Thanks.

I know you can in 2008 +, but I don't remember if viewport overrides for color existed in 2005...

Its just that we received an architectural drawing with this done and it worked on 2005. If it was done in 2008 would the layers still show up a different colour in the viewport?

I doubt it. The feauture would be mutually exclusive to files of 2007 and now 2010. Whether it would even work on 07 is an unknown.

My thoughts could be incorrect; they are just my estimate.
