Layers

In this tab you can set the properties of DXF/DWG layers: layer names, layer visibility, colors, line types and line weights.

The last 7 layers are used for AutoDXF functionality: Texts, Bend Info, Threads, Threads Points, Small Holes, Small Holes Points and Bend Marks. For those layers you can change the name, the color and set visibility.

Enter layer name - you can enter the name of the layer

Object – used as a reference name for layers, not editable. Stays the same even if you change the layer name.

On/Off – enables or disables the layer

Color – specify layer color

Line type – select layer line type from dropdown

Line weight– select line weight from dropdown 

Export Mark Feature Layers – If selected all the layers used by Mark Features will be exported. Those layers’ settings (Name, Color, Line type and Line weight) are controlled using the Style Manager (Manage/ Style Manager/ Mark) in the individual sheet metal parts:

Set objects colors and linetypes directly - option to set objects' colors and linetypes directly on the objects and not byLayer to make exported DXF files compatible with some laser or plasma cutter software

LTscale – set LTSCALE variable (valid only for DXF export) to define visual scaling of non-continuous lines. For example - if the spacing of dashed lines is too small increase this value to around 50.
