Display plot style table in the layout

00:03

If you assign a plot style table, when plotting,

00:06

you will only see the changes in the resulting output or when you preview the output.

00:12

But if you wish, you can assign a plot style table to a layout.

00:16

So that when you view the layout,

00:17

you see the drawing exactly as it will appear when printed

00:22

on the home rhythm

00:23

in the layers panel, expand the layer drop down and turn on the markup layer.

00:30

When you do, you can see that several markups have been added to the drawing

00:36

to change the layout so that it appears as it would when you print the drawing,

00:41

right, click the furniture plan layout tab

00:44

and choose page setup manager

00:48

in the page setup manager dialogue.

00:50

Make sure that the current layout is selected

00:53

and then click modify

00:56

to open the page setup dialogue.

00:59

This dialogue is very similar to the plot dialogue.

01:02

But in the plot style table group box, there is a check box,

01:07

expand the plot style table drop down and choose check plot dot C TB.

01:15

Then

01:16

select the display plot styles check box,

01:20

then click OK to close the page setup dialogue and then

01:24

close the page setup manager.

01:28

Now the layout appears in black and white,

01:31

but the markup is red.

01:34

When you hover the cursor over one of the view labels,

01:37

you can see that the color of the label is actually set to bi layer

01:42

and the layer color is currently set to magenta.

01:47

When you assign a plot style table to a layout

01:50

and then display the layout using that plot style table.

01:53

The layout displays exactly the way it will when printed,

01:57

what you see is what you get

02:02

to change this back. Right? Click the furniture plan layout, tab,

02:06

select page setup manager to reopen the page setup manager dialogue

02:12

and then click modify

02:14

to reopen the page set up dialogue.

02:17

If you simply clear the display plot styles check box,

02:21

the layout will no longer display using the plot style table.

02:25

But the plot style table selected in the drop down

02:27

will still be applied when you print this layout.

02:31

If that is not what you want,

02:33

expand the drop down and select none,

02:38

then click OK to close the page set up dialogue

02:42

and then close the page set up manager.
