I’d just like to bump this thread again.

In LayOut I often setup a viewport and assign a bunch of line styles to several Tags. I then tend to copy the viewport and change the scene in the copied viewport. It would be handy to retain all these user assigned tag line styles while the Tag visibility is reset to that of the newly selected scene. At the moment this is a major hinderance to Layout.

Alternatively (or additionally?) The ability to simply copy Tag line styles between viewports using the ‘copy style’ function while disregarding the viewport’s Tag visibility settings would save an immense amount of time in setting up drawings. Either option would be helpful.

I like that we can now have different edge thicknesses based on tag, but I don’t like how it was implemented. Since this feature was implemented inside of the same panel where tag visibility is controlled, you are forced to disconnect tag visibility from the scene assigned to the viewport. I don’t understand why it was implemented this way. So what is the rec…

onwards and upwards.
