The Layer command manages drawing layers, allowing you to organize objects, control visibility, and set default properties for different types of geometry. Layers help maintain drawing organization and control printing output.
🔹 How to Use
- Select active layer: Click on a layer name from the list to make it active.
- Edit layers: Press the "Edit" button to open the Layer dialog for modifications.
- Set properties: Configure line types, line weights, visibility, and lock status for each layer.

🧠Tips
- Layer organization: Use descriptive layer names for better drawing management.
- Lock layers: Lock layers to prevent accidental modification of geometry.
- Print control: Hide layers that shouldn't appear on printed output.
