What Are Unreconciled Layers

[gsksun4]

What are unreconciled layers and how and why do they exist? I have one in a drawing shown in the layer mgr. Do I need to be concerned with this?

I think it's explained pretty good here by Heidi: http://heidihewett.blogs.com/my_weblog/2007/03/layer_notificat.html

 

In summary: It's letting you know you have a new layer, and that you might want to do something with it (freeze it perhaps...?) - for us, this is important when working with xrefs. If someone adds a new layer and geometry on that layer to a reference file, and you are not aware of it - your plot may contain this new geometry without your knowledge.

Thanks for that info. I reconciled the layer by right clicking on it in the mgr. Now it's in the used layers folder. Seems OK.

Thanks again.
