To Change a Layer's Plot Style

  1. Click Window menu > Properties Inspector.
  2. In the Properties Inspector, select the layer whose plot style you want to change.
  3. Click the current plot style in the Plot Style field. Select the plot style you want to use.
  4. To select a plot style from a different plot style table, select an active plot style table from the Plot Style Table list.

    The list of plot styles changes to those in the selected plot style table.

You can change a layer's plot style only if the drawing uses named plot style tables. If the drawing uses color-dependent plot style tables, change the layer's color to alter the plotted appearance of objects on the layer.

Note: An object's plot style property can be set to BYLAYER to inherit the plot style of its layer.
