UNSAVED ELEMENT COLOR RGB

Last modified by Adam Carlson on 2021/01/07 10:51

The variable UNSAVEDELEMENTCOLORRGB can be configured to set a user-defined element color for unsaved elements in a plan- or elevation drawing. It can be considered a compliment to the asterisk that appears at the end of an element mark when it has been changed. This variable's value is an RGB code,  for instance, "0;0;0" for white (Red; Green; Blue).

This variable will be added under Variables in Standard Admin. AutoCAD needs to be refreshed before the change will affect your drawings.

Example of the IMPACT default setting:

VariableTypeValue
UNSAVEDELEMENTCOLORRGB00
