help creating layers

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by guillermo quijano, Dec 18, 2003.

  1. i'm curretly creating a template. the company standards goes as
    follows:
    x- for existing works
    c- civil proposed works
    s- structural proposed works
    e- electrical proposed works

    i have alrready creted about 50 layers with the x prefix (existing
    works), i have now to create the layers for the rest of the other
    disciplines wich mostly of them contain the same sufix i.e.
    x-pav (existing pavement)
    c-pav (proposed pavement)

    now, since i already created mostly of this layers is there a way that
    i can copy and paste all this and just change my discipline letter?

    do i have to type all of this layers againg just to change on letter?
    :(

    any help would be appreciated,

    thanks in advanced

  4. i meant to post this before my previous one
    ;DDP layer list
    (defun DDP_RestoreLayers ()
    (create_layer "ALUM" 15 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "BORDER" 5 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "CENTER" 9 0 "CENTER")
    (create_layer "CLAD" 161 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "CONST" 2 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "CW" 7 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "DIMN" 7 0 "CONTINUOUS")
    (create_layer "ELEV" 220 0 "CONTINUOUS")

    what does 15 0 means?
