Layer View and Snap status.

Harvey Hampton

I have 2 questions. What command or option may I use to display layer elements as I go through the
various layers. In AutoCad I believe the command is layerwalk. Also is there a way to easily display
my status for which choices I have presently selected for snap options. I have a snap tool bar floating to the
right of my drawing. It would be nice if the chosen snap options were shown in a different color on my tool bar. Or if I could view easily my snap options easily in some area with needing to open a different menu.
Thanks H. Hampton.

Structure panel = but the "display layer elements" is far from clear - easily missed in a zoomed -out drawing.

if you type osmode its the osnap variable value its a added up value of snaps,so 1 is endpoint and keeps going from there.

Anyway I have some defuns set up so I type 47 and it sets my preferred osnaps, others had like 59 which is not a matching number but a shortcut. You can in some cases use a transparent command "line" '47 pickpoint note the single quote this resets osnap.


(defun C:15 ()(setvar "osmode" 15359)) ; sets all snaps on
(defun C:47 ()(setvar "osmode" 47)(setvar "AUNITS" 0))
(defun C:99 ()(setvar "osmode" 99))
(defun C:8 ()(setvar "osmode" 8))
(defun C:59 ()(setvar "osmode" 15359))
(defun C:9 ()(setvar "osmode" 9))
(defun C:0 ()(setvar "osmode" 0))
