    Posted: 23.Sep.2014 at 18:18
Hi Guys,

I'm after some advice regarding drawing management.  The scenario is the following:

I have a large number of detail drawings that I want to produce (small drawings).  I need them all to follow the same layer convention, and by that I mean I want every drawing to contain the same layers and layer properties.  If for whatever reason, I decided that the layer 'Kerb' will now be green rather than red (for example), then I want that change to be reflected on all the drawings.

How can I achieve this?  I have a hunch that its something to do with the .ctb file, although I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance,
Alex.

That's one possibility or you could write a script to change the layer color in each and every drawing then use it to batch process every drawing.
