To View Display Sets

Use this procedure to view the display sets in the current drawing.

  1. Click Manage tabStyle & Display panelDisplay Manager.
  2. Expand Sets, and select a display set.

    The icons next to the display set names in the left pane indicate whether a display set is used in a display configuration within the current drawing. The icon with a green check mark indicates that a display set is assigned. The icon with a green dot indicates that a display set is a standard set. Although standard sets can be renamed, they cannot be deleted.

  3. Click the Display Representation Control tab.

    The right pane contains a matrix that lists each object and display representation. A check mark under a display representation indicates that the display set uses this representation to show the corresponding object. For example, in the Model display set, most objects use the Model display representations.

    Display sets can have different icons depending on their function in the drawing:

  4. Click the Display Options tab.
