Hi, I've searched without luck for a couple hours on this. I'm using Chief Architect x15 and I would like to be able to switch to a layer set, and when I use the standard Text tool to create text here, I would like the text to automatically default to a specific layer. I have created a new Default Set and have specified the Layer Set that I would like it to be associated with. For this default set, I also specified the "Current CAD Layer" to the CAD layer that I want the text to appear on.
Before creating a new text block, I verified that the Current CAD Layer is equal to the layer that I want it to be placed on. I create the text with the standard Text tool and it gets automatically placed on the "Text" layer every time. Am I missing something here?
Automatically place new text on a different layer for a given layer set

Thank you all for taking the time to respond to this with your recommendations. I think these give me a good path forward, and I'll probably try getting it to work with both the Saved Plan View and Default Set methods mentioned. Happy New Year!
