Hello!
I am having a problem. How can I change a color in AutoCad file for, lets say topographical heights if they all are defined as yellow (defined as level 57). And there are hundreds of them. How can I change color for this “level 57”, so I don’t have to change these heights one by one, but all even level units at one time?
Any respond will be appreciated!
