I find that although I've set up (most) of my defaults the way that I like them, I still open existing drawings that have a LOT of what I want to use for the next project.

I wish there was some way to apply my defaults to an EXISTING drawing that may not have all of my current default settings applied.

Maybe something similar to a Layer Translator that I suggested to Dave already? :wink:

I have a user prefs toolbar button that does it pretty well. Below is the code and a rough break down of the settings & options:
