Pulldown menu suffix (VP)

by Earl Chubey
(Winnipeg, Manitoba)

Dear sir or madam: An older drawing that was opened up the other day had (VP) suffixes added to the pulldowns.

The usual "ByLayer" pulldowns now say "ByLayer (VP)".

This is causing problems.

An object on a layer with a given color will only take the viewport color, no matter what the layer color really is.

This is causing us much grief.

How do we get rid of the (VP) suffix and restore our pulldowns to their former conditions?

Your attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Earl
