Thanks Theo - -
I found out the problem...the drawing was in layers...I had to bring the Layer toobar and the line format toolbar up - changed stuff in the line format toolbar in conjunction w/Layer toobar. There you can change those colors depending on what layer yer on.



Is it 5 o'clock yet???

Theeox,
FYI, I set my dimensions,dangling (under the colors options) to the color "red" instead of the SW default "dark tan". This really stands out on a drawing when dimensions and annotations have broken links that need to be cleaned up.

Food for thought......
