2015 lt Layer Property Manager not keeping selection for multiple functions

[biedanne]

Good Morning All,

In the Layer Property Manager 2015 lt, if I select several layers to change more than one property -let's say I want to change them all to the same color and lineweight, or freeze, lock etc..- I can make one change, and then blamo - everything is unselected. I have to re-select the layers. The way it used to work, everything stayed selected until I made the call to unselect it. (Yes, I know, sometimes change is good, and the old ways need to change, but I'm a control freak, and if I select the layers, I want them to stay selected).

It happens with and with out layer filters. Windows 7, everything is up to date, yadda yadda.

Any insight? Am I missing a system variable somewhere?

Thanks

Anne

Set LAYERDLGMODE to 0 and try again.

Does it work now?

I get "unknown command" with LAYERDLGMODE, is it a full AutoCAD variable?

Thanks,
Anne

Oops. My mistake, this sysvar is N/A in LT.

Try the command "CLASSICLAYER". Is that supported in LT??

Thank you for the quick response. That does indeed work.
