Specifying the Display Properties of a Wall Style
In most cases, you can assign materials to wall components so that the
appearance of walls that belong to the same style is consistent throughout a
drawing and with other walls and objects that use the same materials.
If a component cannot be assigned a material, or if you do not want to use
materials but still want consistency among walls of the same style, you can
specify the display properties of the wall components in the wall style:
â–  The layer, color, and linetype of wall components
â–  The hatching used with each component
â–  The cut plane height and the display of components relative to the cut
plane
â–  Other specific wall display information, such as whether complex endcaps
are displayed and whether the wall is cut around door and window frames
Specifying the Layer, Color, and Linetype of a Wall Style
Use this procedure to change the following display properties of the
components of a wall style:
â–  Visibility (component is on or off)
â–  By material (material assigned to the display component determines its
display properties)
â–  Layer
