    Styles editor idiot moment

    Long short, I wanted to rename one of the default layer, "Visible," to "CUT" since that's what our plasma cutter looks for.

    However, I created a copy of Visible named CUT.  Now when I open a new drawing, I get the usual, "The following definitions in template Blah differ from the definitions in the style library..."

    I know I could update each template, but I'd rather just delete the copied layer in the styles library.  However, I don't see how.  Any tips on removing my extra layer with out starting from scratch? Or how to rename a default layer?

    Thanks!

    Did you try RCing on the layer in the styles and standards editor and purging it?

    Style not updating for Old Drawing

    12-22-2012 01:40 AM in reply to: eveylynne

    Hello,

     

    I have renamed one of the layer from "Engraving" to "UBENDLINE" as our laser is looking for. Now I have to update all old drawing for new layer.

     

    When I tried to update old drawing for styles, it is not updating style i. showing old layer "Engraving". Same I tried with new drawing, it is showing correct layer as expected.

     

    Please suggest me solution for updating old drawings.

     

    Thanks
