Managing Drawing Layers
The Layer Properties Manager helps you organize, sort, and group layers, as
well as save and coordinate layer states. You can also use layer standards with
the Layer Properties Manager to better name the layers in multiple drawings.
When you open the Layer Properties Manager, all the layers in the current
drawing are displayed in the right pane. You can work with individual layers
to:
■ Create, rename, and delete layers
■ Change layer properties
■ Make a layer current
■ Add and remove viewport layer overrides
■ Get notified of new layers and reconcile them in the drawing
■ Filter and group layers
NOTE Additional AutoCAD layer functionalities are available on the Home
tab ➤ Layers panel. For more information about AutoCAD layer functionalities,
see “Work with Layers” in the AutoCAD help.
