    No "copytolayer" in AutoCAD 2013?

    I was working in AutoCAD 2012 and just opened the drawing in version 2013.. The "copytolayer" does not exist as a command. It's weird because i searched online and it seems that it should be there. I have the educational version, but somehow i don't think that is the reason it's not showing up.

     

    Any ideas?

    Hi,

     

    does it also not work if you start the command by typing it into the command-line?

     

    Out of the help it should work, and tried also on my 2013-version ==> it works!

    No, it doesn't exist, there is no icon for it, and it doesn't work if typed in the command line.

     

    However, I found the solution here: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/AutoCAD-for-Mac/copy-to-layer/td-p/2931712

     

    This is really wierd, becuse it seems to be working fine with most folks.

     

    Thank you anyway!

    Hi,

     

    >> This is really wierd, becuse it seems to be working fine with most folks.

    Do you have AutoCAD on Mac?

    If so then I guess "working fine with most folks" is valid for the Windows-users.
