Copy or Delete a Drawing Style

Learn the steps of copying or removing a drawing style.

Copy a drawing style

1. Select the drawing style to use as a template for the new style.
2. On the Drawing Style Manager toolbar, click (Copy).
3. Enter the name for the drawing style in the New drawing style Name field.

The new drawing style appears in the tree and can be moved to another category.

Note: The associated sub-styles are not copied with the drawing style, therefore, modifying a sub-style affects all the drawing styles that are using it.

Deep copy a drawing style

The drawing style definitions provided by Advance Steel cannot be modified but can be used as templates for new drawing styles.

The Deep copy command copies the selected drawing style and all its associated sub-styles. The new copy can then be modified at any level, without changing the original drawing style.

1. Click (Deep copy).
2. Enter the name for the drawing style.

The new drawing style appears in the tree and can be moved to another category.

Delete a drawing style

1. On the tree panel select a drawing style to delete. Click (Delete).
2. In the warning box, click Yes to delete the drawing style.
