Manage Layer in AutoCAD

What is Layer?

Layer is classes, lines in AutoCAD drawing file.

Layer in AutoCAD is used for managing drawing class, drawing line effectively and professionally.

In the progress of working with drawing, we use layer in Autocad to display or hide class and line in order to avoid confusing between current category and others. In progress of converting file into drawing, we use layer to display or hide some categories as needed.

In progress of printing, we use layer to display categories, or lines that we need to print; with the others that is not needed to print, we can turn them off.

The progress of turning off layer to edit, print and export current drawing file will not affect to hidden layer.

To display layer management panel, we use shortcut: LA => Enter.
