Sending Plot Lines when Sending to Layout

[325302054302543]

When I send plans to layout the option to select Plot Lines is greyed out.  So whenever I send a plan to layout and then change the layers on the plans on my layout automatically change to the new layers.  How do I stop this?

If you are trying to send a camera view to layout, then try switching to a vector view.  "Plot lines" is greyed out when you are sending a plan view or when you are in a standard render/PBR camera view.

 

Also, the reason that when you change the layers in your plans that it changes the layout is because they are using the same layer set.  I recommend checking our the training videos related to layer sets and saved plan views.

If you are sending floor plans to layout this is normal in x15 from what my system is doing. Turn the colors off in the layout

Said they were sending plans to layout. My choices are also grayed out and X14 was the same. Only when sending vector images can you change to plot lines.

@DBCooperyou are 100% correct.
