Changing colour (pen) of multiple elements.

[Anonymous]

Please can someone tell me if there is any way to change the colour of many different 2d elements at once i.e. selected lines, polylines and arcs/ circles. AT the moment when i select a lot of items and change the colour in the info bar, it will only change the colour of one particular element group, until you manually double-click on another element button. This is both frustrating and time consuming when dealing with other peoples 2d drawings incorporated into my own.

There must be a quicker way, surely?

Regards.

It's the "hammer in the square" button that appears in the info box when you have more than one type of element selected -- it's official description is "Edit Selection Set" -- it will allow you to edit colors and/or layers.

Thank you VERY much.

I'd obviously missed that section of the manual when I started on AC 4.5 and ever since!

Thanks for helping.
