![]() ![]() And if I would like to change my file's location, he would only have to update the reference in this single file. Then he would use the file in his own folder as a reference and it would always show as color 253. Then permanently change all the layers colors to 253. My solution to this problem would have been to create an empty dwg-file in my collegues folder and insert a reference of my file. And if I want to change my file's location he has to go through the 40 dwg-files and change the reference location (ok, you can use reference manager to do this but this option will save the files into that computers autocad version, which is a problem when not everyone in or outside our office has the newest AutoCad version). So he has to do this everytime and furthermore change the reference's draw order to Send to Back for some reason. In Magicad there is a option that changes the reference to a color you want but it wont save this change, so when you reopen the file, the reference colors are the same (even with VISRETAIN = 1). The problem with Magicad is that every storey has to be in its own dwg-file so there can easily be 40 dwg-files in a project. It's not a problem but I would've wished for a easier solution We would'nt want to make a copy of it to a different folder because we often do small changes to it and every time you would have to copy it, use SETBYLAYER and then change the layer colors. ![]() Then select one of the colors on its palette to apply to the background. Click the Color Changer button to view the extension’s options. I convert old paper architectural drawings into dwg and my collegue plans the piping with a software called Magicad. Open the search engine in your browser, which has a plain white background that’s ideal for trying out Color Changer. I feared there wasn't a straight forward solution to this problem, hopefully Autodesk will make changes to this soon.īackground to my problem: In our office we plan the renewal of piping in multistory buildings. ![]()
