Unisolate?

JEFFJW9BB — Tue, 28 Mar 2023 18:21:46 GMT

I needed to change a layer to different properties (a different layer) so I right clicked on the layer and selected LAYER STATUS > ISOLATE. I made the change then could not figure out how to unisolate.

I tried typing LAYUNISO and also clicking on the layer unisolate icon but could not return.

How can I undo that command and get back to normal?

@JEFFJW9BB You can always start LAYER command then turn ON the layers that LAYISO turned off.
LAYERP command can also help if you made no other layer settings changes since starting LAYISO command.

Ensuring your AutoCAD for MAC variant is fully updated would be the first thing to check: FWIW that never happens ever on it's own, you are expected to go hunt down the latest update file yourself then install it.

Hi @JEFFJW9BB ,

In order to be able to use LAYUNISO command to restore layers state after isolation, you need to use LAYISO command to isolate layer(s).

When you use LAYER STATUS > ISOLATE in the Layers palette, AutoCAD don't actually use LAYISO command, it simply turns off all other layers and makes selected layer current.
