Survey Settings | 221
a prototype, the settings are used automatically whenever you create a new 
drawing in a project that is based on that prototype. You can establish the 
settings once and then apply them to each new drawing.
Key Concepts
■ The drawing settings are controlled on a drawing-by-drawing basis 
unless you save them back to the prototype on which the project is 
based. This is designed so that individual drawings in a project can have 
different settings. 
■ The default drawing settings are based on the project prototype that you 
select when you create a project. 
■ If you change the drawing settings, then you can save them back to the 
prototype and use them for new drawings that you create. 
■ If you change the drawing settings for a drawing, only new objects are 
affected. Existing objects are not updated with the new drawing settings.
