Set active symbology batch process

Hello all,

I need help to set multiple dgns to the following symbology before I process a batch place text:

symbology as follows:

LV=0

C0=0

WT=0

I tried this in my txt command file but no change in dgns.

Thanks for any advise

  • Why not  put this text in a reference  file  or your title block ref file  then it will appear how you want it then you only have to do it  once...

    Without seeing your example files  its a bit hard to see why its not working

    But I think you have to set the  active file  level  you want the  text to land on   so the keyin is

    active level = level name

    so in your case 

    active level=0

    dont use the  level number  use the  level name  I assumed the name was 0  from your post but you can work out what you need..

    if you have used by level in your  files then the  colour and weight should be automatic ..... if not 

    then use

    active  color=0

    active weight = 0

    this should force things nicely..

    personally I would use build  macro and run the macro from the batch processor...

    I tested these keyins and they  do change the active symbology  over the bylevel method...
