Problem Description

How to control and retain the same View Attributes for a reference attachment to match the active file?

Example Case - You have created some hatch patterning and are using Level Overrides and ByLevel Symbology in a design file. You attached this particular file as a reference attachment to an active file with Level Overrides set to OFF. The hatch patterning appeared as a different color.

Steps to Resolve

To change View Attributes of Reference

1. Open up to the Reference dialog box, select the reference attachment, right click to open to the Reference Presentation, or click on the current setting in the Presentation column
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. In the Reference Presentation dialog box, check and change  the following:

• Toggle the Display Style from: (From Parent) to: Wireframe (to allow for the pattern to be displayed)
• Check ON: Use View flags (Enables and disables the view attributes. When checked, the view attributes can be turned ON and OFF.)
• Turn ON >Level Overrides and Patterns
• Click OK to close dialog
• Save Settings
