SOLPROF SETTINGS

IS THERE A WAY TO SET DEFAULT WHEN USING SOLPROF, SO
HIDEN LINE WILL BE A CERTAIN COLOR & ON A CERTAIN LAYER?

Hi mbozich,

I don't think so as solprof will create a unique layer each time it's ran.

From the help file:

...The visible and hidden profile blocks are placed on uniquely named layers using the following naming conventions:

PV-viewport handle for the visible profile layer

PH-viewport handle for the hidden profile layer

For example, if you create a profile in a viewport whose handle is 4B, the blocks containing the visible lines are inserted on layer PV-4B, and the block containing the hidden lines (if requested) is inserted on layer PH-4B. If these layers do not exist, the command creates them. If the layers do exist, the blocks are added to the information already on the layers.

Note To determine the handle of a viewport, select the viewport while in paper space and use the LIST command. Choose a layout tab to move from model space to paper space.

V does not change the display of layers; if you want to view only the profile lines you've created, turn off the layer containing the original solid (usually the current layer).

...

Sorry if that's no help.
