If you insert a display theme legend while working in paper space, the legend is attached to a viewport. If you insert a
display theme legend while working in model space, all model space viewports are affected.
Legend for display theme based on Space Size property
To ensure that the display theme can be implemented, verify that:
■
The drawing contains a display theme style that specifies theme settings and establishes conditions (theme rules)
for those objects that you wish to display differently. For more information, see “
Creating a Display Theme Style
”
on page 2109.
■
Property set data is attached to the objects or object styles for objects to which you want the display theme style
applied. For more information, see “
Attaching Property Set Data to Objects
” on page 2062.
1
Open the tool palette containing the Display Theme tool you want to use, and select the tool.
Three sample Display Theme tools are located on the default Scheduling palette in the Tool palette set.
There are additional Display Theme tools located in the Documentation Tool Catalog and with the
Scheduling and Reporting Tools in the Stock Tool Catalog. You can add this tool to any tool palette. For
more information, see “
Working with Tool Palettes
” on page 35.
2
In the drawing area, specify the insertion point for the upper-left corner of the display theme legend.
3
Specify the lower-right corner of the legend, or press
ENTER
to scale the display theme legend to the current
drawing scale.
The objects affected by the display theme visually change in the drawing as indicated by the legend.
Disabling Display Themes
Use this procedure if you want to manually disable a display theme. A disabled display theme is indicated by a marker
through the legend. This does not prevent the display theme legend from plotting on your sheet. For more information
about display properties for the legend, see “
Accessing the Default Display Properties of an Object
” on page 463.
If you attach or overlay a drawing as an external reference (xref) in a project, all display themes in the xref are imported
into the host drawing by default. If the host drawing has existing display themes, then the active display theme in the
host drawing overrides any active display theme in the xref.
1
Select an active display theme legend.
2
Right-click and click Disable Display Theme.
Disabled display theme
Activating Display Themes
Use this procedure if you want to activate a different theme. Regardless of how many display themes you add to your
drawing, only one theme at a time can be active. If you add a display theme to a drawing that has existing themes, the
other themes are disabled. A disabled display theme is indicated by a marker through the legend.
