Creating and Deleting Styles

The upper part of the Style Library form shows the name of the current RPLB that is being used as a Style Library, and a list of all STYLs within it (or None if you have just created the RPLB).

• You can change the current element by selecting the library you want in the emboss list and clicking CE.

  

Creating a Style

To create a new STYL,

1. Click the Create Style button and give the new STYL a name.

   The name will be added to the displayed list and will be highlighted as the current selection.

   The attributes of the new STYL will have the default settings shown by the gadgets in the lower part of the form.

2. Change these, if required, as explained in Setting Style Attributes.

Deleting a Style

• To delete a STYL from the current library, highlight it in the list and click the Delete Style button.

Listing Some of the Attributes

The amount of information shown in the Styles list about each STYL is controlled by the option selected from the Display drop-down list:

Name

shows only the STYL name and drawing level.

Gen

shows the drawing level and any linestyle and colour settings applicable to general drawings.

Pipe

shows the drawing level and any linestyle and colour settings applicable to pipework drawings.

Steel

• Set an appropriate Display mode to make it easier to find the STYL whose attributes you want to modify, without having to recognize its name.
