I recently started using MEP again (2012 version). I am not an expert by any means, self taught how to draw pipes.
My question has to do with layers.
I drew in some storm lines, they came in on layer m-pipe-std. Then I drew in some gas lines that came in on M-pipe-nat-low.
I can turn off the storm lines, but when I try to draw another pipe (say the gas line) they automatically turn back on again. I need to be able to turn off layers and them stay off while drawing on new layers.
Has this happened to anyone before?
I am the only one in the company using this software, it was just installed a few days ago, so maybe it was not installed correctly?
Any help would be appriciated.

thank you -

The last place I Detailed, using MEP, they had a command, "sect" that would prompt for a front of view point, then a rear of view point (usually ortho but not necessarily) for depth of field. We would just click on the drawing rather than draw lines. It would then turn the current viewport into that section view. Anyone familiar with this? The camera function seems closest to this but not nearly as concise. ]]> MEP OldRed http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?79319-Help-with-sectioning-views
