    Lightbulb Viewports and Color

    I was wondering if anyone knows how to change layer colors in different viewports. Thanks Matt

    Hi

    As far as I am aware you can't within the same Layout.

    Different Layouts can have different Layer States applied to them; the following threads might prove useful -

    Layer Colors in Viewports

    Layout Tab Question!

    Have a good one, Mike

    Go into the desired viewport, then open the Layer Manager. Change the colors in the VP COLOR column.

    Repeat for other viewports.

    This feature is only in 2008. Since the thread is in the 2007 forums, I'm guessing you won't be able to find the VP Color settings. What Mike said above is the only option I know of for you.

    When someone is searching for these keywords, they may run across this thread regardless of the forum in which it exists.

    Is the forum split always going to exist in between 2007/2008? I suspect the latest verison will always have it's own forum (not sure why...?), so down the road this thread may be in the "AutoCAD 2008 or earlier" forum,
