Description

This tool allows to set default visual properties like line color or line width, to be used by all Draft objects created after this tool is used, and bulk apply these styles to selected objects.

Draft Tray

Usage

  1. Set the desired line and face colors and line width in the Draft Tray.
  2. Select one or more objects.
