    Smile a command to quickly apply layer properties to a group of objects?

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    hi,

    I learned this trick a couple years ago but can't remember now. Say, you have a dimension and you want to apply the same setting(color,layer,etc.) to all the other dimensions on your floorplan. I know there's a command for it so that you can click on the other dimensions and automatically transfer them to the same layer and color. Please help me!! Thanks!

    You could use Dimension styles for some of this, but I think your thinking off the 'MATCHPROP' command. You could also use 'QSELECT' to select all the items you want to change along with the properties palette to change lots a stuff all at once.
