Need the commands to change item line colour

[djp6]

Hi all.

 

Many thanks for all your replies to my last post. I've spent a lot of time learning.

I have to repeat the following at work and I'm trying to make either a macro or script to do it but I've only just started learning autoCAD and it keeps going wrong!

I select some items, mainly lines, then using the properties manager I change the layer and next i change the colour, (of the selection not the layer default colour).

I've changed layers OK (^C^C -layer set name ^C) but I cant get the selection to change colour without changing the layers default colour, which I don't want to to do.

Could someone give me the commands or the code please.

Many thanks.

I think that you would be needing the command -CHANGE, and then option Properties to enable you to change colour and layer.

hi,

 

you can try this macro..

*^C^Cchange;\\;p;c;1;;

where you have to select by "window crossing" or select 2 objects using "pick box"

"1" represents color red

and this macro loops

 

peace out..
