the display theme in the xref. A marker appears over the disabled display
theme legend.
Attaching Property Set Data
Before applying a display theme to a drawing, the property sets referenced in
the display theme style must be attached to the objects or object styles in the
drawing. The attached property sets are the source of the data for the display
theme. For more information, see Property Sets and Property Set Definitions
on page 3705.
Using Display Theme Styles
Display theme styles control the visual change to the objects as well as the
content and appearance of the display theme legend in the drawing. A drawing
must contain a display theme style to effect the visual changes or to add a
display theme legend. When you copy a display theme style into a drawing,
property set definitions and data formats specified in the style are also copied.
For more information, see Display Theme Styles on page 3855.
Creating a Display Theme Legend Using Display Theme Tools
A display theme legend provides a key to the display theme, mapping specific
colors, fills, or hatches to properties of objects in a drawing. You insert a
display theme legend into a drawing to activate a display theme and visually
change the appearance of objects by overriding the current display properties.
The tools provided let you quickly place display theme legends by selecting
a display theme tool with a specific display theme style and other predefined
properties. When you place display theme legends using display theme tools,
you can use the default settings of the tool, or you can change settings for the
display theme properties. You can also use display theme tools to apply the
settings of a display theme tool to existing display themes.
The default Scheduling palette in the Tool palette set contains three sample
display theme tools that you can use and customize as needed. Custom palettes
created by your CAD manager or other users may also contain display theme
tools with display theme styles and properties that are customized for your
projects or office standards.
