Class Override Multiple Use

[CS1]

I find I use the same class override again and again through my plans.

EG My roof class is set to solid so roofs look good in model, but for all my plans I need it to appear as no fill with a dashed outline.

It takes quite some time to apply the same class override to all viewports.

It would be handy if there was some kind of eyedropper feature that applied only one selected "class override" from one viewport to another, rather than applying all class overrides.

Hope that makes sense.

I think it's already in the eyedropper tool.

Look for this in the eyedropper preferences:

Yeah there is the option to "pick up" and "apply" class overrides, but if you only want to make an override to one class through out your plans then this is no good as will change all classes that have been overridden.

[RubenH]

Maybe it has to be something like cut and paste between classes, like textures channels in others 3d aplications.

Can you not already do this by going to the Organisation window, selecting the Viewports tab, then selecting the Viewports you want to edit, then click on Edit, then click on Classes? Then make the relevant overrides?

Thanks Christiaan, didnt even think about this way, just what I wanted.

You can do this for Sheet Layer Viewports, but not for Design Layer Viewports, unless they fixed it recently.

Nah hasnt been fixed I dont think, which is of no help to me since I hardly use sheet layer viewports
