To Apply Plot Styles

A plot area label style, which you can change at any time, is applied to plots when they are created.

The two components of a plot style that display are the plot segment line and the area fill. Area fill is a hatch pattern that you can apply to the entire plot area, or use to mark a border around the inside of the plot boundary. You can set a fill distance to define the width of the filled border.

For information about applying parcel styles during the creation process, see To Specify Default Settings for New Parcels.
