    Posted: 16.Jul.2014 at 20:18
Hello,
 
In many of my drawings, there colors have been set to "red" or "yellow". However, when we print these drawings, our plot settings just change these colors to just black.
 
I wondering if there is a way to quickly select all objects that are "red" and change them to "color 10". And also repeat for objects that are "yellow", "green", etc...
 
Or perhaps someone has made a LSP program already?
 
Thanks,
 
Brad

Perhaps QSELECT?

A quick search re: lisp routines for changing the color property of any given entity shouldn't be too difficult to find.

To call this LSP, do you just type "cx"?

Hello,

Please check your plot style in plot manager, may it was settled as a "monochrome" for plot properties.
If it was just changed into "None"


Thanks

Hello Pigtoss, what I know about LISP files is that you have to UPPLOAD them in your file to be treated then :
Launch the associated command.
I don't know that LISP and i have searched in the LISP file but not found the command.
Maybe "thinker" will help you ( us ).
Please tell me if this helped or not.......
Tell us about the good or bad use of this LISP and if you have succeeded in treating your files OK.

Yes, to call this LSP just type cx. in any of *.lsp file the wording after "defun C:" is command of that lisp, you can change these words as your convenience but be sure that it does not conflict with other commands.
to load lisp files THIS  will help you.
