Evolution Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:43 PM (edited) I am working on setting up layer sets (set some up in the edit default tools menu) and noticed that even though I have built a couple of different layer sets, copied from existing sets, with the associated layer's displayed, I want for each, I noticed that there is not an option (at least I haven't found it) to see the new layer available in the layer window (if that makes sense?). You have to select a layer, open, the look for the newly created Layer Set and it's associated layers to display, and I haven't done enough using the different layer options to know how to access them easier. I'm sure the experts on here have it all down to a science but I don't. I'm using CA 12 a lot more now (in semi-retirement) and just getting back up and running, thus the need to have a better workflow. Is that where "saved plan views" comes in? IF so, I'll probably not live long enough to learn to do it that way. The layer set I want is not in the project browser either.

I've created several "saved plan views" and within each have attempted turning on and off the particular items I want displayed for each saved plan. That being said, I can't quite get the trick doing the over-lay of the as built to new construction. I'll leave things as they are for now and go back and watch the "Remodeling: How to Generate As-Built Overlays in 2D & 3D - Video | Chief Architect" again.
