DBUG> Change of line colours when moving to different layer
From: Mike Backler
Date: Jun 14

Good Day All 

This has happened once before at the beginning of 2018.  I know someone 
gave me the solution, but I can not find it. 

Please could someone help me. 

In the my current drawing whenever I move an entity to a different layer 
or cut and paste, the moved entity take on the colour of the layer that 
it was moved to, irrespective of the colour of the moved object. 

Its not a train smash, but very annoying and a time waste. 

I do not know what I have done to make it act in such a fashion. 

Thanks 

Mike Backler

Mike, 

There's a button in the Move, To Layer menu, "Layer Color". Toggle it 
off and the problem will go away.  It comes in handy sometimes, but it 
doesn't reset to off by itself, so lurks there waiting for you to forget 
to change it next time you get to that menu. 

Best,

Hi Mike, 

When you are in the Move / To Layer menu after you select the 
destination layer, you can toggle S2 Layer Color off (or on). 

If you have line type set to By Layer, or line spacing set to By Layer 
(both these are in the Layer Manager), then you can toggle those on or 
off, as well.

Gee, I didn't know Datacad could do that! It must surely be one of 
those buttons that you never know about until you hit it by mistake.

DBUG› Wish List - Alt-I Ignore Clip Cubes
From: Neil Blanchard
Date: Jun 19 2019 6:38 AM 

I wish that Alt-I set the Ignore Clip Cube setting, based on the entity 
you select. In other words, if I Alt-I on ParaText or a Smart Arrow that 
is set to Ignore Clip Cubes, I would like it to be set the same for the 
next text / arrow I create.

DBUG> SESSIONS
From: David Haynes

Debuggers,

After the latest upgrade to 21, when I open a file I get a sessions file folder added to my list of drawing files.

Is there a way to keep this from happening?

Thanks,
David

Hi David,

Are you referring to the Open dialog??? Do you want to have Sessions files created??? If so, where do you want them??? If not, you can turn them off in the Program Preferences / Misc.?? Or you can change the path they are saved to there, as well.
