Adam_Gibson Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Only on one machine, when I select an object (wall, dimension, etc.), nothing gets selected on the active layer display options panel. I assume it's a preference somewhere, although I don't know why anyone would not want it. Anyway, I can't find a way to turn it on. Any ideas? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Somehow someway "Show All Layers" was likely selected or the file that saves those settings was corrupted. Any way you most likely want it not selected. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That last person I helped did not even know that was a setting let alone where to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure most people pass right on by that one because of the way it is set up. If the setting was reversed and labeled as "Show Selected Layers" then it would make a lot more sense to most people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_Gibson Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 True. But I wasn't even looking there. I looked in preferences and defaults. Where it should be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 It's also in the Object Layer Properties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 It's also available by right clicking anywhere in Active Layer Display Options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom_Craft Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 This was SUPER helpful! I turned "off" this option and couldn't figure out how to turn it back on. All fixed! So much better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
