Tips 2252 and 2253: Object's Layer Off and Object's Layer Freeze
The next two tips -- Object's Layer Off and Object's Layer Freeze, come from Francis Gamotis; however, he notes that coworkers at the City of Tacoma, Washington, helped create these tips. Both tips are similar in that they allow you to select an object on the screen and either turn off the layer for that object or freeze it, respectively. This variation of the layer off/freeze power tool allows for the selection of nested objects. When a nested object is selected, the Block Insert layer is frozen instead. To use these tips, load the LSP code and type Offx to turn off the layer or Frzx to freeze the layer of the object selected. These handy AutoCAD power tools come from power users. Thanks, Francis.
