How to Create a New Layer Group

Method 1

Pick Create new from existing Layers in the Set Viewport Layer for Plotting dialog box.

The Plot File Editor dialog box will display all the existing HydraCAD layers in the Layers On column with the exception of several layers not normally plotted as shown in the Layers Off column. To remove a HydraCAD layer from the Layers On column select the layer name and pick the red arrow. Select the Save As… button to save the new group with the name of your choice.

Method 2

Select the Plot All HydraCAD Layers group from Type of Plot for Current Viewport and pick Edit Configuration.

The Plot File Editor dialog box will display all HydraCAD layers in the Layers On column. This method does not require the layers to exist in the current drawing. To remove a HydraCAD layer from the Layers On column select the layer name and pick the red arrow. Select the Save As… button to save the revised group with a different name.
