Now when we have created drawings there are only 2 used layers for example profile block is in 0 layer with difrent color for main, hidden line and axis, and another is for dimension. But i need axis, hidden line and main line put in diffrent layers (ussually comes from customer with your colors and names). Later he will to switch on/off some layers (for example switch of axis and hidden lines)
How can i put new layers for erection drawings? Or maybe it's imposible to do?

Just a little question : Why you want different layers ?

The best way to have your layer is to explode the drawing after.

Or you can define different process to have drawing without axis or hidden lines.....

Or you can swichting on/off axis, hidden line, main one by one each item.

Best regards

It's customer request, they doesn't explain why they need all in different layers (strickly with customer names and colors),.
I have changed layers after exploding, but it's to much work with one project. It's job for raw autocad users,

Ok, i understand.

I really think that the best way is to explode your drawings.

So, did you know you can define an "explode settings" for each client ?

Create or copy your user setting and rename it for the new client.

Regards
