allie Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 When I open the layers dialog box my layer names are scrambled up and not in order like they once were. I have to hit the "Name" tab to get them back. I have tried re-setting it back to how it was but can't figure out how. When I opened an old file of the same drawing and the layers are in their original positions. How do I get them to stick? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpseifert Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Try setting the system variable Maxsort to a higher number (20,000) and see if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allie Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Took me a minute to figure out how to get to variable settings, (command: "setvar"), but onces I got there and I found Maxsort was able to re-set it. Did the trick. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 For future reference; to set a variable, you can type it on the commandline, hit enter and then input a new value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpseifert Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Or, if you have Express Tools installed, they can be changed using the System Variable Editor (command: " _.sysvdlg") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allie Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 I don't have express tools, but will keep that in mind if I add it later. Thanks Tig, Ips - A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
