Match Properties Settings

A quick post to highlight that AutoCAD has a lot a “hidden” settings that most people (including me) don’t use or even know about.

Take for instance Match Properties, this actually has a selective settings box so that only some of the properties from the source object are matched!

Note that when Match Properties is clicked and the source object is selected AutoCAD lists the current settings under “Current Active Settings”, usually this is everything, however you can type S (or click settings in 2013 and above) and you will be presented with the dialog to turn off (or on) various properties to copy.
