Layers
The Layers tab lists the layers displayed in the graphics area of a drawing document.
-
The initial state of layer display reflects how documents were saved in the original document.
-
Resaving documents in SolidWorks eDrawings saves the layers in their initial state.
-
Hidden annotations and dimensions and empty layers are included.
-
Layer states apply to the whole document, not by sheet or view.
-
Markups capture the state of the layers, so if a markup is retrieved, layers are displayed as they were when the markup was created.
-
Shaded data for components in assemblies is published with the layer data.
