evergreen Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 See attached: When working with Annotation Sets, what is the role of the "Cad Layer" in this setting...put another way, if it wasn't there, would it be missed? From what I gather, so far, layer assignments can be set for each category, ("Dimensions", "Rich Text", "Text", etc.) independent of the CAD Layer assignment.

rlackore Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 All new CAD objects (lines, boxes, etc) will be drawn on the Current CAD Layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I would miss it, for instance, when I activate the framing annoset, it also activatices the framing cad layer for new lines, circles, boxes, so they don't show up on all the other annosets I have.

mcrump Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 One of my favorites is to stick the 'Current CAD Layer' button in a custom tool bar. Then when I want to wire up some electrical switches I just pick the 'Electrical Connections' layer and use Chief's arc command to have more control of the arc. I find Chief's Auto Electrical Connections' command to be much too wild and vulgar with its arcs. Toolbar.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuttery Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 the same can be done using the "ACTIVE DEFAULTS" toolbar icon and more .... Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
