I have Autocad 2014

I want the layer manager to show me only the unused or used layers

The layer filter doesn't have that option

They're only general layer filters explanations, i didn't find the answer, how to show/hide used layers

Someone says there that even on version 2015 he doesn't find such a property filter

Which Product(version)?

Only used Layer-filter is standard and should be visible on the left part of layerproperties-manager.

(also available to show the filter on the right in the layer list)

 

Upload a screenshot of your layerproperties-manager with both sections(Filters and Layerlist) visible.

 

How to use Layerfilters for on/off ->

Set the filter active and select all layers on the right

OR

Right click on the filter -> Select all

and then do what you want.

Focus on "Status" column. Search in HELP for more info.

Also might need toggle the indicator on.

Hi,

 

you need to turn on SHOWLAYERUSAGE and then use this setting in the layermanager:

Take care ... sometimes the refresh button in the layer-manager (upper right) needs to be used to refresh the "unused layer" list.
