To Specify the Display Properties of a System

Display properties control how parts that belong to the system are displayed in your layout. System definitions use the display properties configured for the display representations, but you can override display settings to customize display for a system definition.

For information on the AutoCAD MEP display system, see AutoCAD MEP Displays.
