Copying the properties of a single layer from the viewport

You can apply the properties of a layer in the drawing file only to an existing layer. If you want to do this for a new layer, you first need to insert the new layer where you require it.

To use the properties of a single layer in the drawing file

• The Wall dialog box is open.

1. Click in the Number column to select the layer whose properties you want to replace with those from the drawing file.

   Note: To apply the properties to a new layer, you first need to insert the new layer where you require it. To do this, you can use Copy layer and insert it before the selected line or Copy layer and insert it after the selected line.

2. Click Match a layer from viewport.
3. In the viewport, click the layer whose properties you want to use.

   Note: If you want to copy the properties of a layer in a roof covering, the easiest way is to click the layer in elevation or isometric view. When you click it in plan view, Allplan will copy the top layer.

   The program replaces the properties of the selected layer with those of the layer clicked.
