Changing the display colors

When you use the Production Advanced Query Command to find features by attribute values and select them in the map, you can customize the color in which they appear. The color overrides any existing symbology for the selected features and allows you to distinguish the features in the map more easily.

For instance, if you select a group of buildings using the Production Advanced Query Command, you can change the color to something brighter so it is easier to see the selected features.
