PJ01 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I have created a template that saves the standard layers and the Dimension styles and Viewport that I use. On my practice exercises, I use a lot of POINTS as markers, and select the Menu Bar /Format/Point Styles to select an appropriate Point style. Can anyone please tell me how to save this Point formatting, so I don't have to re-do it every time for a new drawing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ01 Posted October 26, 2017 Author Share Posted October 26, 2017 Sorry, stupid question. I just opened my custom template, did the Point format, and saved the template, overwriting the original.

SLW210 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 You can create ACADDOC.lsp and it will set any System Variables as you want them on opening a drawing. SEE THIS Example: (SETVAR "PDMODE" 35) (SETVAR "PDSIZE" 5) (SETVAR "PELLIPSE" 1) (SETVAR "PICKADD" 2) (SETVAR "PICKAUTO" 1) (SETVAR "PICKDRAG" 1) (SETVAR "PICKFIRST" 1) It can also load any LISP routine.
