You can use styles to make existing drawings conform to your company's standards. Suppose you receive a drawing from another company, and all the hidden lines are continuous.
Your company standard indicates that hidden lines should be a line type that is dashed. You have been using a line style, called Dashed, to conform to the standards used by your company.
To change the hidden lines in the drawing quickly and efficiently, you can follow these steps:
-
Open the drawing that you received from the other company.
-
Select all the lines that you want to change.
-
On the ribbon, select Dashed in the Style box to change all the lines that you have selected. All the lines now appear as dashed lines instead of continuous lines.
