Use code set styles to control the visual appearance of a code set (link, point, and shape codes). You can create specific styles to use for the different aspects of an assembly or corridor.
Since subassemblies can be displayed in a number of objects, code set styles are applicable to those objects as well. The following types of objects use code set styles:
- Subassemblies
- Assemblies
- Corridors
- Section views
An individual subassembly typically contains just a few points, links and shapes. Therefore, most subassemblies typically contain a relatively simple code list. Since an assembly manages a group of subassemblies, the code list for an assembly is comparatively larger. Furthermore, since a corridor can have multiple assemblies applied within it, the code list becomes larger and complex. The same holds true for the section views.

- Adding or Importing Codes to a Code Set Style
Add or import codes to a code set style. Both methods use the Codes tab of the Code Set Style dialog box. Click the Add button to add a new or existing code, or use the Import Codes button to import codes from a subassembly, assembly, or corridor object.
- Copying or Editing Code Set Styles
Use the Settings tree to copy or edit a code set style by clicking an existing style, making modifications and then saving it with a new name.
- Copying or Editing Link Styles
Use the Settings tree to copy or edit a link style by clicking an existing style, making modifications and then saving it with a new name.
- Copying or Editing Marker Styles
Use the Settings tree to copy or edit a marker style for subassembly points by clicking an existing style, making modifications and then saving it with a new name.
- Copying or Editing Shape Styles
