To Change the Display Configurations of Xrefs

1. Open the host drawing that contains the xref drawing for which you want to specify a different display configuration.
2. Select the xref drawing that you want to change, and on the Display tab of the Properties palette, click (Edit Object Display).
3. In the Object Display dialog box, click the Xref Display tab.

   If the settings on the tab are unavailable, you cannot change the display configuration used for the xref overlay.

4. Select Override the display configuration set in the host drawing.
5. Select the display configuration to use.

   The listed display configurations are those available in the xref drawing. Select Domain Drawing Default if you want to use the default display configuration specified in the host drawing.

6. Click View tab Appearance panel Regenerate drop-down Regenerate Drawing And Viewports .
Note: If you specified that the drawing should always use its own display configurations when it is inserted as an xref overlay, you cannot change the display configuration used to display the xref objects in the host drawing.
