Use this procedure to synchronize a project drawing with the AEC project standards.
Synchronizing a project drawing with AEC standards
Two lists are displayed. The top list shows styles and display settings that have corresponding styles or display settings in the project standards, but are either an older version of a standard style or display setting, or a nonstandard (newer) version. The bottom list shows a list of styles and display settings that do not have corresponding styles or display settings in the standards (not standardized styles and display settings).
In this case, the nonstandard version remains in the project drawing for now, and is not updated with the standard version. The next time the drawing is synchronized, the style or display settings will be listed again as older version or nonstandard version.
In this case, the nonstandard version will not be listed again in future synchronizations, except if you select Show objects set to ignore during project standards synchronization, or remove the Ignore flag from the style or display setting in Style Manager or Display Manager, as described in To Exclude Styles and Display Settings From Synchronization.
You should use the Ignore option only in clearly defined exception cases where you are sure that a style or display setting does not need to conform to the project standards.
The next time the drawing is synchronized, the style or display setting will be listed again as not standardized.
In this case, the not standardized object will not be listed again in future synchronizations, except if you select Show objects set to ignore during project standards synchronization, or remove the Ignore flag from the style or display setting in Style Manager or Display Manager, as described in To Exclude Styles and Display Settings From Synchronization.
