NOTE If the preview does not work, you can activate it. First, ensure that the item preview button at the top of the Prospector tab is pressed in. Then, right-click the Parcels collection and click Show Preview. 6 Right-click one of the Single-Family parcels. Click Properties. The properties of the parcel are displayed in a dialog box. Note the detailed survey data shown on the Analysis tab. Review these properties as you wish, but do not change anything. 7 Click the Information tab. Change the Object Style from Single-Family to Open Space. Click OK. Notice that the appearance of the parcel changes in the drawing, and in the item view preview. The name of the parcel changes in the Parcels collection on the Prospector tab. This happened because the style name is part of the naming template that is associated with the parcel. A distinct set of custom styles for each AutoCAD Civil 3D object type can be saved in a drawing template. Object styles can be changed as needed to change the display of an object. Explore the Settings tab 1 Click the Settings tab. The Settings tab contains a tree structure of object styles and settings for the drawing. Like the Prospector tab, it has object collections at several levels. 2 Expand the Settings tree by clicking next to the Intro-1. Expand the Parcel ➤ Parcel Styles collection. This collection displays the styles that are available in the current drawing. 3 Right-click the Standard parcel style. Click Edit. The object style dialog box displays the current style attributes. Explore the contents of the tabs to see the various attributes that can be changed when you create a style. 4 Click Cancel. Further exploration: Expand the Settings tree and look at several style objects and commands. Right-click various objects to see the available menu selections, but do not change anything.
