Title: All walls please proceed to layer zero for immediate departure.
Post by: ryandk on November 21, 2005, 06:54:44 PM

Is there a way, and if so how, to make all wall inserted into a drawing to insert on layer zero no matter what layer is active?Without changing layer keys and such.  We have a template that does what we want but a certain project needs them to be layer zero upon insertion (please don't ask) and I don't really want to change the office standard layer keys, etc.

Thanks,
Ryan

If you make the wall style accessible thru a tool palette, you can edit the properties of the wall when it's inserted:

Right click
Properties
Layer Overrides

They were accessible through a tool palette so I followed your advice. Thanks.
