Modifying the color of an object
Overview    Operations    Commands

It is possible to change the color of an object reassigning it to an other layer, or modifying the color of the layer on which the object is, or directly specifying the color of the object.

There are three ways of modifying the color of an object:

• 1) To re-assign the object to an other layer bearing a different color. If the color of an object is set on BYLAYER and the object is re-assigned to a different layer, the object will assume the color of the latter.
• 2) To change the color of the layer on which the object is. It the color of the object is set on BYLAYER,the object will assume the new color of the layer.When the color assigned to a layer is modified, all the objects on it, bearing the setting BYLAYER, will automatically be updated.
• 3) To specify a color for the object, ignoring the color of the layer. It is possible to explicitly assign a different color to each object, overriding the color of the layer. Modify the color of such object from BYLAYER to a specific color (e.g. red or other).

To set a specify color for all the subsequently created objects, modify the color setting on the Property toolbar, substituting BYLAYER with a specific color.
