In 2012, Dean Saadallah had some very helpful tips about getting layer states to work:

 

  • In model space, turn ON and THAW all layers.
  • Have no pre-existing overrides in any viewports.
  • Create layer states in model space, nowhere else.
  • Use freeze/thaw, not on/off, for layer controls.
  • Double click inside a viewport that has no overrides, start LAYERSTATE, select from list, then click on restore.
  • Repeat in other viewports in other layouts, each with a different layer state.

The above steps worked great - all layers stayed on in model space as intended, and layouts showed their desired layer states.  Then, however, I added an object on a new layer in model space. The new object appeared in all of the layouts (not what I had intended when setting up the layer states!)  When I went to edit a layout layer state, the new layer was not shown in the edit layer states window. I could restore the layer state for a layout and have the new object disappear, but then the new layer also turned off in model space. The solution was as follows:

 

  • double click in a layout viewport (won't work if you merely have a layout tab active and forget to double click inside the viewport)
  • use the add layer button in the layer states manager edit window to add the new layer to the layer state for that layout
  • freeze the new layer
  • restore the layer state
  • repeat for each layout

Result: the new layer stayed on in model space as intended, but stayed off in each of the layouts with their respective layer states.
