I can't find where to set the display order of layers. I have lines that display under a PDF underlay but I can't drag the layer above the others. They appear to be in alphabetical order, which, while frustrating, I can live with if AC will allow me to easily move layers around some other way.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI use image insert to attach aerial photographs. I would like to use the FDO raster connection, but I keep having a problem with the raster image losing it's display order. I use "display order" in the display manager and move the raster to the bottom, but for some reason it keeps popping above the line work and I have to keep sending it to the back.
I put images in drawings quite frequently as they change from year to year and we monitor a large number of projects yearly. Is image insert still the quickest solution or is there a way to ensure the image will retain it's display order when I do a data connect?
I have several shp files ordered in the display manager. Three Polygons, one line and one point shp. the problem is that the bottom polygon that is supposed to draw order last continues to show up above all other files during plotting to PDF or other digital file. I have tried to disconnect and reconnect the problem shp, reorder several times but nothing changes. This is making it impossible for me to plot a file in the way is it being displayed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a project where we have a combination of CAD data and shape files (connected) with various labels in both formats.
They are in the proper order for both 'Groups' and 'Draw Order' in the 'Display Manager'.
We have two separate viewports, created and named using 'Display Maps' with the applicable layers turned to visible as each viewport requires (some common shapefiles need to be display, some different, some different CAD data also). When we do a regen within one viewport the other non-active viewport immediately loses its draw order (CAD objects appear above the shapefile data). If we switch viewports and Regen then the first viewport will lose its draworder.
Could this be a case for Autodesk Subscription and the developer's to resolve?
I have a surface and a pipe network. I am trying to print out a picture of these two objects rendered for the engineer to see. I have the surface as a rendered surface, but the pipe network is displaying under the surface (so it is invisible) and I was wondering if there was a way to have the pipe network display "thru" the surface so the engineer can see the pipe network with all the pipes drawn underneath the surface. Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a solid hatch pattern I want to use on a sheet that would display under a Model Space View (MSV).
(Ideally, I would like the hatch to come from an xref set up in the .dwt for the sheet, but I won't push my luck.)
Unfortunately the solid hatch always remains above the MSV. Refer to image attached. I have tried the following :
- 'Draw Order' - 'Send to Back' of the hatch (including it's bounding box)
- "hatchtoback"
- "hpdraworder" = 1
- "sortents" = 0
In profile I would like to show the 'Inside Pipe Walls' line on top of the 'Pipe Hatch' is this possible, search some threads haven't found a solution.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 2 images that I need to see on 2 diferent views. On one view I need to see image A over image B. On the other view I need to see image B over image A. When I do the display order, it reflects on both views, so I have the same order on both views.
How can I avoid this, so that I can see different display orders depending on the view?

We are in the process of updating our pipe network structure label styles. The styles are displaying the inverts in a random order (Please see caption) & we'd like to show the inverts in descending order from highest pipe as first text string & lowest pipe as bottom text string. Is there a way to globally tell civil 3d to always use a descending invert order? Only fix we've found is to disconnect & reconnect the parts in order to adjust invert order.

I have this heavy issue, i can't send to back a line, an object or a hatch under other lines. In 2012 i used this feature a lot but in 2013 it's not working very much, maybe 1 time out of 10 and i absolutely can't say why.
HPDRAWORDER = 1 seems to work with a new hatch.. but i can't redraw everything.
Let's say i put an entire floor plan into block then draw over it. (I don't want to start a Xref discussion please) i can't send the entire bloc to the back.I used to do that with 2012, 2008, 2007.. but it's 2013 it's not working, is there a way to correct that?
A way to change the display order of pipes connected to the structure in a structure label? (plan and profile) Say you have a 10", 6" and 12" pipe connected to a structure, modeled in that order, so label would place them 10, 6, 12. we would like the label to display the order as 6,10, then 12 without having to drag the pipes off and then having to re-input inverts.

design Center - display order goes out the window. The inserted block is redefined but the rest of the drawing loses all its display order. sortents (127, 33, 51, etc) and displayorderctl does nothing, either before or after the block is redefined. hatches and blocks just jump to the front (display order shows as order of drawn not order as moved to) Regenall does nothing.

I have a quick question. When I use the layer control dropdown menu, the layers do not appear in alphabetical order like they do in Layer Manager.
Is there a way to fix this?
I am using a symbol that includes a several text boxes. Each text box includes "prompted text" and "drawing properties". When I insert the symbol onto a drawing, the "Edit Property Fields" menu appears. In this menu, I can input my prompted field text or see the various "drawing properties".
My question is, how do I change the order that these property fields are displayed? It seems as if it depends on the order that the text boxes were created while defining the symbol definition. Is there any other way to change the display order?
Is there are tool somewhere where you can make the draw order layer specific. I.e so we have a layer with a certain number of items on it that always appear above another layer with other types of items.
We tend to use leaders a fair bit and they often drop below some of our design elements, ideally we want them to be at the front & have to spend time bringing to front / sending to back etc.
Is there anyway that I can assign a layer to be always in the front/on top of all other layers in draw order?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there are a way to display the attached tags for a photo in manual order, rather than how they are sorted in the keyword tag list?
When I assign tags to a photo, these are displayed in the order in which the tags are sorted in the list of tags (either alphabetically or manual).However, what I want to achieve is to display the tags for a photo in the order of i.e. the people shown on the photo.
how to achieve this?
Scanning old photographs, with multiple photos in each scanned image. I've created a virtual copy for each individual photograph and then crop appropriately. However, photographs have different dates and I want to be able to sort them chronolgically. Ideally I'd set the Capture Time on each virtual copy and use that as the Sort order, but LR doesn't separate images co-joined in a Virtual set, so to speak. It seems like it looks at the Capture Time of the Master copy of a virtual set.
The only way I can see how to do this is to export, re-import into a different catalogue, and then apply Capture Time metadata. This is quite a cumbersome workaround. I'd like to do this all in the same catalogue...also exporting / importing re-compresses the image and would like to avoid that.
how to sort on date with virtual copies?
I have been unable to make Draw Order work well. The attached file and other ones I created would not work. The goal is to have the boarder and text (color 7) always stay on top after it is created as a block and pasted to any drawing. After pasting it, the text go underneath the shade (color 155). I have used Draw Order, picked the objects in the order I would like, repeated the same steps inside the Block Editor and Edit Block In-Place, still, the block would not work. I never had this issue before - seem to have stared today. Don't know what else to do. The only thing that works is keep recreating the block till one works, which seldom works.

I have browsed the web for two days and found nothing that helps me. The crux of the issue is that i get to a point where i have applied maybe three adjustment layers and then aaply say a sharpening layer only to find i cannot see its effect on the image due to its order in the stack.
Well, I had need something that had put the layers in a random order.. I show a picture so ya see (each "big pixel" is a layer.Tried to make them look randomized, but it didn't went that well.
