Modify layer status dialog box

Note: You can change the layer status only if the current privilege set allows this.

Access privileges can be controlled at layer level by means of privilege sets. Privilege sets are generally assigned when there are several people working on the same project: When the Workgroup Manager is installed, each person is granted the rights to one or more privilege sets and can consequently see/edit only the layers associated with those sets.

Workgroup Manager handles the organization of CAD workstations in local networks. The Workgroup Manager module enables users to access all projects on all computers from every workstation. It ensures data consistency even if several users are simultaneously working on the same project.

Current

Selects the layer of the element clicked as the current layer.

Modifiable

Sets the layers of the elements clicked to modifiable (you can select several elements).

Visible, frozen

Sets the layers of the elements clicked to visible, frozen (you can select several elements).

Isolate layer - set all other layers to hidden

Selects the layer of the element clicked as the current layer and sets all the other layers to hidden, frozen (with the exception of the default layer).

The DEFAULT layer is a layer that is always available to all users. Its status is always Modifiable. You cannot assign format properties to the DEFAULT layer and elements cannot assume their properties from the DEFAULT layer, either.

Current layer - set visible layers to visible, frozen and retain hidden layers

Selects the layer of the element clicked as the current layer and sets all the other visible layers to visible, frozen (with the exception of the default layer). The status of hidden, frozen layers stays the same.

Current layer - set all other layers to visible, frozen

Selects the layer of the element clicked as the current layer and sets all the other layers to visible, frozen (with the exception of the default layer).

Current layer - set all other layers to modifiable

Selects the layer of the element clicked as the current layer and sets all the other layers to modifiable.

Set all layers to modifiable - retain current layer

Sets all layers to modifiable without changing the current layer.

Undoes changes made to the layer visibility or restores changes you have undone. Using Layer visibility you can display the course of changes made to the layer visibility and undo up to 30 changes. This setting is user-specific and saved separately for each project.
