XK3V1N Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hi, I am new to ACAD 2015. I do not know how to activate the "Layers" tab, all I see is the "Layers & View" tab. Could you please advise me? Thanks, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Umm, I don't have 15, yet, so I haven't seen a layers tab. Are you sure that is a thing? Any way, you can activate tabs by right clicking on the ribbon and selecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Kevin There is no Layer Tab, but there is a Layer Panel. The layer panel including the manager button, and the layer selection drop down list, and all the usual layer control buttons are on the Home Tab, right about smack in the middle. If you don't see it, right click the Tab Bar just about anywhere, click Show Panels and click Layers on.A rudimentary annotation panel is to its left, and a rudementary block panel to its right.

Dana W Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hmmmm. Layers & View tab? I don't have one of those. Maybe there is a difference between what full AutoCad has & the LT ribbon. At any rate, right clicking a toolbar/ribbon, palette will get you a bunch of stuff you can turn on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Can you post a screenshot showing the area where you expect the missing "tab" to be? AutoCAD for Windows or AutoCAD for Mac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I didn't see that (Layers and View tab) either when I was looking at screen shots of the 2015 ribbon. Maybe it's a Mac thing. nestly just barely beat me to the Mac part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkent Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 You are in a 3D workspace, change to a 2D such as Drafting and Annotation, then you will see the Layers Panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
