Style Brush

Feature Description

The Style Brush allows quick application of one object's style to other objects.

  • Available for CAD layers and text layers.
  • Click the Style Brush button to apply styles to multiple objects consecutively.
  • When selecting multiple geometries of the same type and clicking Style Brush, the tool records the style of the geometry with the smallest SmID (as base style). Subsequent objects clicked with the brush will inherit this style.
  • When selecting multiple geometries of different types and clicking Style Brush, the tool records styles from the smallest SmID geometry in each type. During style application, base styles automatically match target object types (e.g., point styles only apply to points, line styles to lines, etc.).
  • Supports cross-layer usage - styles can be applied to objects in different layers within the current map.
  • Use selection boxes (dragging mouse) when precise geometry selection is difficult.
