Obsolete: New post on Layer Visibility Control in Rhino 8 WIP coming soon! Control layer visibility in Model views and Layout views separately. Independent Model View Control When viewing the model, in the Layers panel, click the :bulb: icon for model visibility. This does not affect the visibility…

Hi! Super nice feature. Currently, it doesn’t work for me. Turning layers off/on in the model space affects the layout as well, but turning on/off from layout & detail does not affect the model space :slight_smile:

H @petumat, Thanks for letting us know. It is broken in the current WIP release Rhino 8 SR0 2022-12-20 (Rhino WIP, 8.0.22354.14305) Sorry about that. But we will see it and we will get it fixed. We will let you know when it is ready to try out again. Sincerely, Mary Ann Fugier

Hello! I can confirm it’s broken in the latest downloadable WIP (8.0.22347). I’m a little worried that this new implementation could be a bit more complicated than necessary. [image] Trying to make sense of these menu entries - how can a layer be on ‘in this detail only’ and at the same time in …

[image] Eugen: Trying to make sense of these menu entries - how can a layer be on ‘in this detail only’ and at the same time in ‘all layouts’? The logic here is: On for this detail, but not for the other details on this layout OR On for this detail, but not for any other detail in any other…

Ok, thanks… still, a few things don’t make sense here. Following the logic of what you said - if there are menu entries “Layer on/off in this Detail only” with submenus “This/All layouts”, shouldn’t there be also menu entries “Layer on/off for all Details” with submenus “This/all layouts”, instea…

Hi @Eugen , Thanks for testing the WIP. We made this quick and rough video to explain these settings before the holiday weekend. I will do a better video in a few weeks. Here is the model that I am using in case you want to try it. solids.3dm (452.0 KB) Here is a summary of the settings: Globa…

The latest WIP (8.0.22361.13135, 2022-12-27), for the first time, acutally worked as advertised. So, sincere thanks for going in and fixing this long standing issue! It was one big puzzle piece why many people avoided Rhino for any serious layout work. Just for clarification: In the video you pos…

[image] Eugen: For those unaware: layout/detail have those 2 columns of bulbs, and the one you are using is usually kind of hidden to the far right in the panel. In the latest internal this is changed and now indeed there is a single light bulb column only based on the mode you are in.

Hi @Eugen , When in a layout or detail, if you want to see more layer property columns, just click the View button on the toolbar. [image] The default is to just show what is relevant to the space you are working in. – Dale
