Copying and Pasting Layer Styles

Layers are easily styled by copying the styles from one layer and pasting them onto another layer with features of the same geometry type. All feature and annotation properties, i.e., properties included on the Feature (Polygon, Polyline or Point) and Annotation tabs are copied and pasted.

Note:    Layer styles cannot be pasted if the source of the layer being copied was deleted.

To copy and paste a layer’s styles:

1.     In the Project Tree, right-click the layer whose style you want to copy, and select Copy Layer Style.

2.     In the Project Tree, right-click the layer to which you want to apply the copied layer style, and select Paste Layer Style. If you want to paste the style to multiple feature layers, use CTRL-click or SHIFT-click to multi-select the layers, and then select Paste Layer Style.
