No Plot Layer?
-
Hi,
Does there exist in one of the existing Layer rubies some one has made, or is it possable to make something that will:like reference notes and dimensions on a layer I can view on screen, but it will not plot or print when outputed?, Like a "Defpoints" layer in ACAD, or checking a no plot box in the layer manager? Without having manually put things on special layers and toggling it off with a different saved view tab every time you want to view it?
Thanks,
Matte -

MatteEverything that is visible will print out.
But you can easily make a new layer for TEXT or DIMS etc and have that switched on in one Scene Tab but off in the others. Set that Scene Tab properties to only change layers
, so that everything else you have set, like the view itself are not changed when toggling the tab. Scene tabs can be set to change only layers on/off and keep views etc unchanged - it is a quick way to change things.
To put any existing Text or Dims onto the layer simply select them and use the Layer-Toolbar drop-down to assign the new layer - if that layer happens to be off then the object will 'disappear'... -
Thanks,
That should do the trick!
