LAYOFF — Off
Turns off the layer of the selected object.
- Command:
LAYOFF· Global name:_LAYOFF - Ribbon: Home › Layers
Turns off the layer of the objects you select: their objects are no longer displayed or plotted until the layer is turned on again. The command keeps asking for objects, so you can turn off several layers in a row.
Usage
- Enter LAYOFF or click Off on the ribbon.
Select an object on the layer to be turned off or [Settings/Undo]:
- Select an object: its layer is turned off. Repeat with other objects.
- Press Enter to finish.
Options
- Settings (S): inside a layout viewport, whether the layer is frozen in that viewport only or turned off in the whole drawing.
In paper space viewport use [Vpfreeze/Off] <Vpfreeze>:
- Undo (U): turns back on the last layer turned off in this command.
Notes
- If objects are selected before the command starts, their layers are turned off and the command ends.
- The current layer can be turned off: whatever you draw on it will not be seen until it is turned on.
- To turn them all back on, use LAYON; for a single layer, the LAYER or the layer control.
