Im building a wish list of pretty simple things that would make the flow better and there is one thats top of my list…
a hot button to **Collapse All in the layers. **
I know you can right click and there is a button that offers a drop down menu but I just want one button that selects all my layers and collapses the whole list.
The other one thats annoying me ‘HighlightObjectLayers’ - if the layer window is not activate it does not work - why not program it so when you select Rhino activates a layer window?
I do use that however I would prefer a direct one click button - considering its usefulness it would be great to customise the menu bar you highlighted and have an instant one click button there.
I literally have 100s of layers/sublayers and I tend to find it easier to collapse the layers and then renavigate to the appropriate sublayer.
I do feel filtering for detailing can be enhanced. When filtering details in layouts quite often it is challenging to find what is ‘on’ and ‘off’ and a quick button that filters Detail would be so useful.
Thanks again and look forward to your solutions (by the way the idea of the HighlightObjectLayers concept would also be useful with highlighting within the block manager when selecting blocks)
I have just made to good use your _-Layer _Collapse _CollapseAll _Enter command - thats exactly what I’m after and positioned it above my layer panel - many thanks!
I have revisited this update and can confirm the ‘_HighlightObjectLayers’ in the update only activates the layer panel when there is not one open which in most cases is unlikely. When the layer panel is docked but not “on top” the command fails to activate the layer panel to be on top.
It would be extremely useful if the command can activate the layer panel to be on top and highlight the layer.
Also It would be beneficial to have a similar command selecting a block and highlight that in the block manager.
