Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide a CAD application that allows users to establish, maintain, and synchronize project standards for style definitions and display settings across multiple drawing files that are part of a design project. The CAD application also allows users to specify how changes to a project standard should be synchronized across the drawing files associated with a given design project. A synchronization setting may be manual, semi-automatic or automatic.
