Multiple A size drawings... best practice

QCad Pro Windows 10 home I am trying to figure out the best way to display different layers of my drawing onto multiple [A size] layout blocks. The way I'm doing it now requires me to keep toggling layers on and off and only print on Layout at a time. Could I be missing something obvious?.. Thanks E...

What command has the adjustable size circle on the curser? (Solved)

Install on PC and Mac

Will I need to purchase separate licenses if I want to install QCad Professional on my Windows PC then also on a Mac at a later date?

Thanks

Re: Imperial (US) drawing sheet templates, ANSI A-E

You can use this application preference to hide block attributes when the block is hidden:
Edit > Application Preferences > Graphics View > Behaviour > Hide attributes when block references are hidden
That worked perfect ... thanks thanks

Re: Imperial (US) drawing sheet templates, ANSI A-E

I've filled in some of the attributes on the title block. That's a nice feature.
Question: When I toggle the visibility of the title block to [OFF} the attribute text remains visible on the layout. Can the attribute text be hidden?

thanks

Thanks for the fast reply. The line weight was very thin and the color was light grey. Made the line wider and changed the color to black.
Problem Solved :D

(note: I'll have another question about the title block attributes but will start a new topic)

Re: Imperial (US) drawing sheet templates, ANSI A-E

It looks like I should also rename the "Title" and "Revision" blocks the same way as the Paper Frames. Am I correct ?

Thanks
