    Hello and thanks in advance

    I have a problem arranging my layers, my drawing contains polygonal layers, linear layers and point layer, and I want these layer to be drawn in a specific order first the polygonal then the linear and only then the points.
    I have a downloaded util’ that called “dobylayer†but it doesn’t satisfy me.
    Does anyone know of a better util’?

    Just a clarification I have over 50 layers in my project so send to back or bring to front is to long of a process for me.

    This isn't exactly what you want but it may help until someone comes up with
    something for you.

    Layer naming conventions might help. All polygonal layers start with G-, all
    linear start with L-. and all points start with P. This would help with
    selecting not drawing order. I realize this may not fit with your standards
    or help much with existing projects.

    The best thing I can think of is to use the Filter command and save layer
    filters for each group of layers you want to work with. Then using Filter
    you can easily select each group of layers to send to back or bring to front
    as you need.
