Activate layer of selected object

The layer on which the selected object is located is activated.

Move object to current layer

Selected objects are moved to the current layer.

Move object to layer 0

Selected objects are moved to layer 0, which is the standard electric layer where symbols and

lines of circuit diagrams are normally placed.

The colour is white (assuming IEC) and the line width is 0.35 mm when printed on an A3 size paper.

Move object to layer DEKOR35

Selected objects are moved to layer DEKOR35, which is non-electric with red colour (assuming

IEC), thus presented identically with layer 0 in a black and white plotting.

The line width is 0.35 mm when printed on an A3 size paper.

Layer drop-down list

Here you find the standard AutoCAD layer drop-down list, similar to the one that is located in the object properties toolbar, in the cadett ELSA Classic workspace.

This feature shows all layers of the current sheet, making it possible to activate anyone of them, as well as turning layers on and off and other manipulations.
