Layer Set Organization

[skoz44]

Hi,

 

I'm wondering if anyone has an organization style for their Layer Sets that they love.  I have some organziation, but it's "clunky" and not as easy to navigate as I like.  Currently it is setup by categories with numbers (to keep it in order).  Ex.

15 ************DIM FLOOR PLAN ************

15 CAD/TEXT - Floor Plan, Dimensioned

15-Dimensions, Automatic

15-Dimesions, Manual

18************DEMO************

18 CAD/TEXT - Demolition

20************ELEVATIONS************

20-CAD/TEXT - Elevations

20-CAD/TEXT - Sections

etc. etc. etc

 

 

Ideally I'd love a way to display only the layers associated with "Floor Plan", so that no others show.  Then select "Demolition" and only the associated layers show.

 

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Chop,

I never figured a way that the used column could help me. Haven't really found a purpose or it.

How do you use it?

Click it and it will sort all the "Used" layers to the top of the list.  All the other columns also work in a similar way.

Wow! That's pretty powerful. I can see where that could help me find things easier.

I add _ to the layer names that I create

that places them at the top of the list when sorting by name
