Applying Sketch Styles to Viewports

You can apply a default sketch style to a sheet layer; this sketches the objects on the sheet layer, but it does not sketch the viewports on the sheet layer. Each sheet layer viewport can have its own sketch style, making it easy to present designs with different sketched looks.

A sketch style cannot be directly applied to a design layer viewport, but it can be applied to the layer of the design layer viewport.

To apply a sketch style to a sheet layer viewport:

1. Select the viewport.

2. On the Shape tab of the Object Info palette, select Sketch from the Rendering list. Click Render Settings to select the viewport default sketch style.

If you are creating a viewport, select Sketch from the Rendering list in the Create Viewport dialog box, and then click Render Settings to select the viewport default sketch style.

The Sketch Render Settings dialog box opens. Select a sketch style for the viewport.

►    Click to show/hide the parameters.

Parameter	Description
Viewport Default Sketch Style	Specifies the sketch style to apply to the viewport
Edit	Opens the Sketch Style Editor dialog box, for changing the selected sketch style parameters
Preview	Temporarily applies the current sketch style to the viewport (disabled when accessed through the Create Viewport dialog box)

3. Click OK.

The selected viewport sketch style overrides the default document sketch style for any objects within the viewport, including the crop object, referenced design layers, and any annotations.
