The Renovation styles catalog contains display and layer assignment styles. AutoCAD Architecture 2026 toolset-based styles for objects, such as walls and windows, are managed with Style Manager.

If the Renovation styles catalog is renamed or moved, the styles are disabled and cannot be accessed. Use the Renovation Styles Catalog Settings dialog box to specify a valid catalog.
