Layer

Select the layer from the Layer list on the tab.

An element will be added on the selected layer. When using layer offset selection, the element is added on a layer, which is the default layer + the selected layer offset. The current layer is always the one selected last.

You can also select the layer by pressing the number key:

Select the layer 0-9 by pressing an equivalent number key button on the keyboard.
Select the layer 10-19 or 100-199 by pressing number key 1 repeatedly.
Select the layer 20-29 or 200-255 by pressing number key 2 repeatedly.
Select the layer 30-39 by pressing the number key 3 repeatedly.
Select the layer 40-49 by pressing the number key 4 repeatedly, and so forth.

You can restrict the visibility of elements using layer selections.

Note:

When creating the so-called covering macro, add the hatch to the covering layer, that is layer 101.
You can hide dimension and text from a drawing by placing them on the hidden layer, 110.
When the symbol is on the layer -1, individual elements of the symbol are on their original layers. If you select another layer than -1 as the macro layer, all individual elements of the macro are on the selected layer.
