The first few post of this series show you how to change the look of BricsCAD later ones concentrate on changing how it works. When you need to modify it, all other files will be updated automatically.BricsCAD allows you great flexibility in changing the way it looks and works. For example, you create a typical floor drawing and use it as a reference. However, if you are the reference file owner, you might need to change it. Usually, we only clip the drawing and change the layer properties. So there are limited ways to modify the drawing. It depends on the context, but this is the general practice. You only use them to help to work with your drawings. You can freeze the layers, change the colors, line weight and other required modification. You can modify all the properties as necessary. When you click the file name, it will list all layers in that particular drawing. If you open the Layer Manager, you can see Xref group filter. It means you can make the drawing appearance to comply your standard, without modifying the original file. If you change the wall color and line weight, it will only apply to the host file. You can change the layer properties on host layer without affecting the original files. Modifying the Reference File LayersĪnother common change we do to a reference file is to change the layer properties. And you will still have the XREF benefits. This is very useful when you need to show only a part of the reference file. You can use XCLIP command or use Create Clipping Boundary from the contextual tab. You can clip the reference file and only show necessary area. This can be useful if you need to use the host file as reference.Īfter you save the reference file, the person who works on the host file will be notified that the reference file has changed. This will ensure they work with the latest file. Click the reference file, and you can choose the edit option from the ribbon.Įdit Reference In-Place allows you to edit the reference file from within the host file. AutoCAD allows you to do this within the host file. You can open the reference file and modify it directly. If another engineer is working on that file and she will change the design, do not this option. However, I won’t suggest this option unless you are the owner of the reference file.

You can open the file and then modify it. The first method is by editing the file itself. Let’s see what we can do to change the file appearance Modifying the Reference File

You need to emphasize your drawing and need to show referenced files thinner.

This is often the case if the architect doesn’t work in the same company as you do.

The drawings don’t use the same plot styles like yours.

You only need to show a small part of the drawing, not the entire floor plan.

Why do you need to change the appearance? Here are some examples: You only work with your files. If you use an architect drawing, for example, you are not allowed to alter it. But you can control how the referenced files look on your drawing. In this 3rd part of our XREF tutorial series, we cover how you can control reference files appearance.
