ACAD 2009 - Match properties from xref
(OP)
Is it possible to match properties from a specific layer in an xref drawing to your current drawing. The xref is 5 minute opening time heavy so that its a real pain to open and copy object (or Ncopy).
Cheers. Sean.

Basicly I'm after a way to replicate matchprop but taking those properties from an object in Xref rather than an object in current drawing.

Loaded but get this message
Select source entity: ; error: no function definition: VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT
Any ideas?

I also changed the command name to MatchX or maxr.

It seems to work partially by moving the entity to the layer I have created, but doesn't change the properties of the object or the layer (so doesn't change dashed to dash dot for example) and the layer which you have to make yourself also has to be set up with the correct properties, such as bylayer, colour etc.
But thanks all the same.
Cheers. Sean.
