This AutoCAD 2017 tutorial video demonstrates the use of layers. If you'd like to buy me a refreshing beverage to say thank you please click the following link, don't worry if not though, no hard feelings! www.buymeacoff...
You're probably the most polite trainer out there. I started learning CAD about a week ago, grasping concept of layers troubled me. Very well explained. Thanks
Hi Joe, thank you for the video! Do you know how I can get this layout/view on auto cad 2017 for Mac? In school I learned how to use cad on Windows but my problem was coming home and not being able to practice what I had learned because Cad looked different on Mac :/
Great question, I can't really put it better than this answer from a forum: "If you turn off layer 0 in the local drawing all of the attached Xref's layer 0 are also affected, It doesn't matter if it's a local file or an attached Xref, Layer 0 is the same layer. The same thing applies to the DefPoints Layer. If you are going to use a drawing as an Xref you will want to have everything off of layer 0." Hope that makes sense. 😊
@@JoeRobinsonTraining I'm actually having trouble when I insert a block in model space. The scale is totally off from the drawing I insert it into and i'm trying to learn how to make sure both are in the same scale. The block I inset is showing up way larger.
