AutoCAD 2013 :: Current Layer - Every Object Or Line Selected In Drawing Appear On It
Jan 16, 2013When I set a layer as current, every object or line I select in the drawing appear to be on that layer in the toolbar. Although in the properties toolbox, I see that the line I selected is still on the right layer.
I can't work in paperspace either, when I freeze a layer it freezes all objects. It seems like whenever I give a different layer to an object, it attributes to all object that same layer.
When I open the same drawing in acad 2008, everything is ok, the objects have the proper layers.
Is there a command for that or it's an acad 2013 problem?

Nov 18, 2013In AutoCAD 2010, the UCS Icon settings dialogue window has a 'Cone' setting for displaying coned arrows at the end point of each axis. This 'cone' setting has been removed from 2011-2014.

I work for a company that has installed its own toolbar and and attribute box's to be filled out.
My issue is that I need to zoom into various parts of the drawing to be able to fill out all the boxes.

AutoCad :: VP Freeze A Layer In All BUT The Current VP
Sep 17, 2013I'm working with a DWG that already has a-gazillion VPs.
I'm currently making new layers, but the "New VP Freeze" option only seems to apply to new VPs made AFTER the creation of the layer.
I need the new layers I'm making to be Frozen retroactively, if you will, in all previously-made VPs.
Short of going into each and every VP and manually VP Freezing these few layers, what can I do?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD .NET :: Making A Layer From Xref Current
Mar 27, 2013I want to make a layer from external reference current.
I tried to identify it with its full name, but I got an error: eInvalidInput. So I found out, I have to use only the part behind the pipe.But then there is a problem, because this name is not unique withing the drawing.
Any number of xrefs can have such layer and also the drawing itself can have a layer with the same name. How exactly can I set a layer from xref current?
example:
layer from xref1: Xref1|LayerName1
layer from xref2: Xref2|LayerName1
layer from the drawing: LayerName1

Jan 12, 2010There are certain occasions where I would like to insert a block to inherit the current layer in an active AutoCAD drawing.

Is there a command to where I can directly insert a block and its layers change to the current layer of the active AutoCAD drawing?
