layer that takes the color of another layer

[g.patera]

Hello, everyone! I am brand new to the forum and autocad and I would like to ask myself a question that will be safe enough stupid, but let me... :smile:
practically when I go to work on multiple layers the color of the various lines changes together with the layer!
es: on the layer1 I create a square red,
on layer2 select the blue color, but when I go to select that layer, it also becomes the square that should be red.
how can I keep the color line dl layer1 assigned to it?
I hope you understand despite my confused explanation!
Thank you all!

write more calmly looking at the syntax and explain better
Hi.

Okay, just that's hard enough to explain. I practically need:
layer 1: figure
layer 2: axes
layer 3: quotation
and in each layer the lines must be of different color to be able to distinguish well which parts of the drawing you are talking about.
the problem is that if for example design a green square in layer 1, when I go to select layer 2 automatically the lines I had drawn in green become of the color established by this last layer. and this does not allow me to distinguish the various parts.
so I need that even changing the layer, the colors previously imposed on the lines remain unchanged and not changing color according to the chosen layer.. I hope this time I've been clearer. :biggrin:

 

[warburg]

impossible!
layer1, with its color and layer selected in layer ownership; Same for the other two.

 

[g.patera]

to me this does not happen. any line drawing takes the color of the layer I choose.

 

[Marco74]

is it not that by chance you select what you have already designed and then clikki to change layers?

 

[g.patera]

No no. if with layer 1 design a square in blue, when step to layer 2 the square automatically becomes layer 2 color.
However I have autocad 2011 in trial version, I would not like this to be the problem.

any line drawing takes the color of the layer I choose.

boh, I think it's a very normal behavior of the program.

If you draw an object on the green layer and, keeping selected that object, change layers to e.g. red, the object itself will pass on the red layer.

to avoid this phenomenon, before touching the layer curtain, click the exc button a couple of times, so as to uncheck all objects.

keeping that object selected

Well, then I understand everything:

 

[g.patera]

No, guys! I deselect the object! but even if unchecked lines automatically change color. . .

 

[g.patera]

I solved. practically I went to select the layers from a quick menu that was already set on the autocad bar, instead you have to open an advanced window. a little uncomfortable though. .

 

[warburg]

an advanced window?

 

[Marco74]

I've always changed the layer like "warburg." see image attached by "warbug" previously. easier than that.

 

[AntonioV]

an advanced window?

I would also like to know which window "advanced" the good pavement alluds...

meanwhile, mark it another way to change current layers: the icon _ of the layer group.

Boh... I can't really feel the problem.

an autocad entity can have a series of colors, including 2 in a particular way.
the dalayer (which as the name says will take the layer color)
the dablocco (which is used for in the blocks, but it's a little more complicated to explain)


if you draw a square (blue) on a layer (blue), the possibilities are two:
1) you designed a square color bylayer (and it's blue only because the layer is blue)
2) you drew a square assigning the blue color to the square itself.

in the hypothesis 1) if you move the square to another layer, this will assume the color of the target layer;
In hypothesis 2) the square will remain blue on any layer you put it.

I want to hope that you do not use a layer-type thing as a layer state of express (which records in addition to the ignition state also the colors of the layers - which then change to every access to a given state) or that you are drawing in paper space and locally modify the color of the layers.
Otherwise I can't explain these behaviors.
