ProgeCAD: Layering Entities with Layer Manager Video Lecture | ProgeCAD Tutorial: Learn and Expertise - Design Softwares

looking at this current droid wish I
don't have no button you see this is a
very messy drawing with all the circles
and rectangles and then these objects
grouping into one so two different shape
Detroit we may want to use layering to
give a different layer different objects
this is also to ease protein or printing
with pen thickness where you can have
different color for different hand
thickness when you print the drawing
itself how do we create layering okay
looking at this drawing again on my left
I have written some layers basically the
two drawings is the same and these are
the same but on the right side of the
droid you see different layers with
different colors how do I create this
all you need to do is go to format layer
now with this layer manager if you see
leave one which is yellow then your two
cyan't and layer tree again time how do
we create new layers and go back to the
next layer click on new layer color go
for it the rest we leave it as default
let's draw some objects to change this
into a different layer or your penis
I like this go to the tool bar click on
new layer one
Christmas weekend oh this is under new
layer one as comedy musical put it into
the middle of these joints now without
layer you see a very messy closet or the
layers overlapping on all objects
overlapping chatter then with layers you
can achieve 18-year objective one by one
now let's edit only the white color
layer to edit the white color layer to
see the so many different the poles and
lines here then goes to the left to make
it easy for me to edit the white color
layer we have to do is to go to format
again here white will be the layer name
zero which is the current layer we have
to do is twist we can see the other
layers has been flipped from the front
and the top of these drones which is
white
go back to the format this apply to get
your entrances are visible in the join
so now we want to edit deep again table
which look like before I don't know why
my command football again time we want
to edit them again now what me to again
equal to layer with this other layer
this layer cannot be freezed because
this is current layer so when you have a
current thickness which is the current
layer you are not able to twist that the
year
what you need to do is to change the
thickness to this double click now you
are able to freeze anything to go back
to the format on the year that's
unfreeze for this Center stick this to
zero to apply then you see the whole
drawing again in order to edit the white
and you need to freeze sorry
in order to edit the yellow layer and
you need to freeze the other layers here
we go to format by repeating this you
Chris you want to edit a yellow you
freeze the others but you're not able to
freeze the white because this is a
current layer as shown
well you need what you can do is switch
off the leave itself
shush it off you can see the lightbulb
has been off to apply now you get the
same effect of fizzing the rest of the
layers and you can draw rectangular for
example oh this missing is because you
are drawing the rectangular in layer 0
using layer 0 so that's why it is
missing from the draw yourself switch on
that particular 0 layer and you are able
to see the rectangular box that you have
drawn just now okay let's look into the
other option that is available
let's unfreeze this line now I would
only like to move the scien leg layer of
cyant objects' of these objects here so
you can either freeze or switch off the
other layers and I show this now or you
can go to layer lock the other layers
show move select or can see is body
select desired color does the rest of
the layers has been locked
of the up of the trolley now the coins
when the layers has been locked you are
not able to select it since it will
unlock the years can be selected the
other option will be the line type and
change the line type to different set of
line types and you also can set the
light weight which is 1 3 or 180
subtract but I would advise that you
leave it as default of course do many
want to set this degree of rotting in
the pentacrest as shown in the earlier
video you can actually use that video if
you want to first are white as white
there's a little icon with a printer
what they do is for example now to do an
example okay as you can see we are able
to block down the car great white
is light yellow and cyan color sorry
okay the cancer now we want to treat the
bucket down it is no one plot that will
get that but we want it to be visible
click see the little cross on the pot we
applied
some the magenta color is now visible
so meaning will be printed up because
you're freezing the public more than
layer so this is useful sometimes when
you do not need to print depths of the
objects or entity but you want it is
still visible in your drawing
so how to delete an unused layer we have
been a tuition has been another new
creation right sometimes we have the
Lord is in cleanup closely in touch
click the layer that is not used in the
Troy I like that they deleted just take
much we want to personally here yes
now that layer has been pushed from your
drawing
so to rename a layer is very easy
I like the layer that you want to be
named right-click so there is all about
layer using layer property manager
there's another option that you
highlight in the next video which is
Explorer layers is similar but it is a
more advanced dialog where you can use
which is called ultra cap Explorer this
will be showing in the next available
video for you thank you
