ChiefVeronique Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Hi Everyone, I'm getting very frustrated with the layer sets. The dropdown menu shows only a few layer sets but none of the one I created or even the preset one like, All off, All on.... they are gone. I see them in the Layer Display Options, but not on the dropdown, so I can’t use them. Any idea? I’m on Mac Thank you, Veronique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiefVeronique Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 Ok, I see that now, but I still don't know how to switch to a layer set that isn't part of the saved plan view control. Sorry.... May sound stupid but after 4 years of using ChiefArchitect this change get me totally confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dermot Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 There are a number of different ways to change your active layer set for the current view in X12: - If you are using the Active Layer Display Options (ALDO), you can show the layer set combo box. It should be there by default in X12. - You can use the Edit Active View tool to change your current layer set along with any of the other default settings your view is currently using. - You can add the Layer Set combo box to your toolbars using the customize toolbars.

Dermot Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 There are also a number of good training videos and articles about layer sets (most of these have not been updated for X12 yet though): https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/playlists/100/saved-plan-views-layers-annotations.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/5483/understanding-layer-sets.html?playlist=100 https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00765/using-layer-sets.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/category/91/layer-sets.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
