How to export layer sets in X17?

I somehow don't know how to do this anymore?

 

I've been using the, "save as" method for so long that I can't figure out how to export layer sets from one plan and import them into another.

 

It's sad to admit, but what am I missing?

 

I thought this was always in the file menu under export?

 

Help!

Hi Michael, the tool you're looking for is actually an import tool. Go to File>Import>Import Settings From Plan/Layout.

This tool has plenty of options and allows you to select only what you need. It's a very handy tool!

You are correct, pre X17 you could export, layer sets, default sets, wall definitions from a plan.

For some unknown reason the export function for these in X17 has now been removed.

I exported these as a backup for my template plan in case they got altered or became corrupt.

I presume the only way to retain these now is to keep a copy of a template unchanged as a backup
