You can create or edit a style, and then save the changed version to the style library. If the style has the same name as a style that exists in the style library, it replaces the library version.
Access to a style library may be controlled by the CAD administrator. It is usually a good practice for the CAD administrator to maintain a master copy of a style library and copy it if modifications are needed. Using this practice, you can always retrieve the default styles from the master library.
- Create or open a document with the styles you want to copy to the style library.
- On the ribbon, click
Manage tab
Styles and Standards panel
Save
. - In the dialog box, all styles in the document are listed. Click column headers to sort contents.
- In the Changed column, all styles that do not match the library are labeled Not in Library.
- In the Save to Library column, styles that do not match the library are automatically labeled Yes. Click to change to No, if desired.
- To mark all styles at once, click Yes to All or No to All.
- Click OK to save styles marked Yes, or Cancel to close the dialog box without saving styles.
Note: When you save a style to a style library, substyles are automatically saved. You are prompted to save referenced substyles that are different from the library. For example, a dimension style uses a text style as a substyle. If you change the dimension style and text style, saving the dimension style to the style library prompts you to also save the text style to the library.
