bababarghi Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Guys, What is the solution if I want to convert all entities on Layer Pen35 (Colour=ByLayer) to Layer Base (Colour=Yellow)? Both Laytrans and LayMrg (and even this) won't allow me to pick target layer's colour. I need to apply several of such layer mappings e.g. - Pen25 --> Base (White) - Pen35 --> Base (Yellow) - Pen50 --> Base (Red) etc. Additionally, I can't use Quick Select because of numerous nested blocks in the drawing. Above question would be addressed if I could select objects in nested blocks with Quick Select. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababarghi Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 Just in case if anyone else had a same situation, here is what I did: There is LSP in ToolPac called Hardcode Color which basically assigns object colour from their layer colour (hardcode). All I did afterwards, was to put all my objects onto Base layer. P.S: if anyone has a similar routine to assign hardcoded colours on objects (based on their layer colour), please let me know.

bababarghi Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 What about using FILTER then Properties Not a chance. As I said in my first post, there are several multi level nested blocks which caused the whole grief initially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 You may have to do a by object type conversion and run a couple of passes, in particular one for blocks, checkout WWW.Lee-mac.com for a change all block properties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababarghi Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sadly, I am not following on following two parts: ... by object type conversion ... change all block properties Does Lee have a lsp for that?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
