Layer logic - jams my logic or what ;)
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2018 7:23 pm
Hi,
right now I'm wondering about a layer behavior and just like to ask: Jams my logic
Scenario: I have a block, build for constructive reasons out of multiple other blocks called "Gas Lift". If I insert it on a layer (e.g. Phantom) in Model Space it will not adopt the layer attributes - yep, understandable.
If I then switch that layer to invisible the combined block will stay visible BUT I can't reach it anymore within a selection.
1. I think if I have something on a layer and switch that layer invisible everything on the layer should be invisible regardless how that block was built.
Correct?
2. A visible block which isn't reachable anymore is more than confusing and there is no easy way to check what is going on. Yes - now I know maybe an invisible layer but which one of my 25 invisible layers ....
If there is no other way to solve this issue then it would be nice to have at least some kind of Alert Message ...
