    Compare design files without level symbology

    Compare design files without Level Symbology
     
    For an easy way to compare design files graphically, and without using Level Symbology, take a look at this great tip from Dick Dudley:

    An easy and fast alternative to using level symbology can be found in your Reference dialog box. Just highlight the file(s) you wish to manipulate, and select Settings > Adjust Colors. By playing with the Value, Saturation, and Hue sliders, you can make the file appear as any color or gray shade you want. Toggle on the Print Adjusted Colors, and it will print the way it displays! Too easy!
