Pen Sets & Excel

Anonymous

Is there a way to get the pen set settings into excel? I am looking for a way to see the pen set number, colour and line weight in a table format. Or perhaps someone has a chart made up of the standard pen sets.

Yes, via Attribute Manager. In Attribute Manager select the Pens & Colors option, click the Select All button, then Print to File... at the bottom of the dialog box, this will create a tab delimited txt file that can be opened in Excel. This can also be done in AC22, but the procedure is a little bit different as the Attribute Manager dialog box has been redesigned.
