Assign colors to individual components in a label.
Use the Select Color dialog box to assign a standard AutoCAD color or use one of the following options:
- ByLayer. Labels obtain their color from the label style’s layer (defined on the General tab of the Label Style Composer).
- ByBlock. Labels obtain their color from the parent object’s AutoCAD properties. The object is first examined for any property overrides. If none are found, then the color property of the object layer is used.
