- Display properties are used as a default when the object is created except when a style is specified.
- Properties set to 'By Layer' use the current display properties of the layer.
- Appearance dimensions are used when Dimension Attributes are not available and a style or control code is not used to dimension the object.
- Editing the appearance properties could change the appearance of objects on locked layers.
