How to overlay drawings Rev A and Rev B ?

Post by EngineerJudy »

How do I overlay PDF drawings Rev A and Rev B? I would like Rev B to be in all RED color and Rev B to be in black. I can overlay two drawings but it is hard to see which is which when they are both black. Can I change one PDF drawing to all RED and then overlay them. How do I do this?y

Thanks.

Hi Judy,

welcome to the forums thanks for the excellent question.

As you point out, you can "Import as Layer" from a file with a right click of the "Layers Pane". To make all the content the same colour you can use the "Content Pane" and the Select options, All, or certain types with a right click of a content item in the Content Pane. These Panes are accessible from the "Options" button on the bottom left of the primary display window:

You should be able to see the whole process here:

I hope that helps.
