To Delete a Color Mapping Table

Color mapping tables must be deleted from a named (STB) or color-dependent (CTB) plot style table in order to add, delete or rename plot styles in that table.

Note: If you delete a color mapping table, plot styles cannot automatically be assigned to objects when older drawings are opened for the first time. Color mapping tables are used to map plot styles to colors and thus to objects of each color when opening pre- AutoCAD 2000 drawings. This enables you to simulate the way drawings were plotted in previous versions.
  1. At the command prompt, enter stylesmanager.
  2. Double-click the plot style table that you want to modify.
  3. In the Plot Style Table Editor, General tab, click Delete AutoCAD Release 14 Color Mapping Table.
  4. Read the warning. Click Yes to delete the color mapping table, or click No to keep it.
  5. Click Save & Close.
