Multiple color schemes for area plans?

[janunson]

Surprised i didn't find this already here in the search, but keeps coming back to bother me and i'm getting around to posting it -

I don't like that when i edit color scheme on the color filles in an area plan that it changes all the other color fill plans too. I should be able to have multiple color schemes... and apply them to different views of the same Area or floor plan.

If I understand you correctly, you can already do this. If you duplicate the color fill legend and create a new type, you can apply it to other views and/or switch back and forth. Think of them as "type parameters" to a family.

There it is!!!

I had this nagging feeling as i typed that that I'd done it before... just couldn't figure out how. Now i want to change my wish to read as follows.

Wish they'd change the "Edit Color Scheme..." button to either go to the properties dialog, or have a way from the edit color scheme dialog to get a new type. It's wierd to have that break in process for the one object type without any helper clues to get dummys like me back on track.

Thanks Jim, my monday brain just wasn't working yet.
