Reset reference template

Last updated: 2020-08-04

WisDOT uses reference templates in Civil 3D 2020 and beyond to manage and update styles and settings to production DWG files.

If there is a need to reset the layers, linetypes, markers for styles and textstyles back to the WisDOT template standards and the Add All Components tool does not do a satisfactory job in updating the standards, another option is provided within the reference template structure.

To do a reset of the AutoCAD base standards using the reference template use the following steps:

Warning: The ref-layer-line-marker-text template should always remain on the top of the list, the Load button should be unchecked and the Status should be Out of date, before and after following these steps.

  1. Manage tab > Styles panel > Reference (command: _AttachReferenceTemplate) Select ref-layer-line-marker-text template
  2. Load: checked, OK

  3. Repeat Step 1, Load: unchecked, OK
