How do I change the drawing style for a model?
Elements can be displayed in one of two styles in the Stand-Alone version: GIS style or CAD style.With the GIS style, the size of element symbols in the drawing pane will remain the same regardless of zoom level. With the CAD style, element symbols will appear larger or smaller depending on zoom level.There is a default Drawing Style that is set on the Global tab of the Options dialog. The drawing style chosen there will be used by all elements by default. Changing the default drawing style will only affect new projects, not existing ones.
Changing the drawing style of an existing project
To change a single element's drawing style:Double-click the element in the Element Symbology manager dialog to open the Properties manager. In the Properties manager, change the value in the Display Style field to the desired setting.
To change the drawing style of all elements:Click the Drawing Style button in the Element Symbology manager and select the desired drawing style from the submenu that appears.
