SETBYLAYER command
Resets overridden properties to BYLAYER.
Description
Changes the value of overridden properties (color, linetype, lineweight, material, plot style, and transparency ) back to the default value of BYLAYER.
Method
Select the entities whose properties will be set as BYLAYER according to the value of the SETBYLAYERMODE system variable.
