Setting objects to current layer.

[roberts]

Hi everyone.

Is there anyway of setting up a command button on AutoCad 2007 LT to set an object (e.g a line) to the current layer using a keyboard shortcut.

Many thanks.

I was under the impression that the "Set Layer Current" button that was part of AutoCAD 2002 had migrated forward to the current release. Anyway, since you cannot use LISP to accomplish this without additional software, can you use a macro instead? If so, then this link might prove useful:

It's a macro for Layer Quick Switch published for use in AutoCAD 2000.

Try button macro:


^C^Cselect \change previous ;properties layer $M=$(getvar,clayer)^M^M

That's worked ok.


Many thanks.
