Updating layer settings for multiple layer combinations

Anonymous — Tue, 30 May 2023 10:49:42 GMT

can any one tell me if there is a way to change a layers visibility or intersection priority for multiple layer combinations w/ out clicking on the eyeball or typing in the number for each one? I have a lot of layer combinations and I need to change a layers intersection priority on everyone, i was hoping that I could shift select all of the combinations and set the value but it doesn't appear to be true. Is there some trick that i am missing?

Not quite what you want but..

If you select ONE layer in the right panel, you can edit IT'S attributes in one layer combo at a time. But you don't have to SAVE each time... So you can select WALLS and type 1 in Priority for Floor Plan (layer combo) then type 3 in RCP (layer combo) etc. You can edit Visibility and Lockability and priority. All this editing is done in the LEFT pane (combo side). It goes pretty fast.... Try it...

I've been working with Archicad for a few years now and only worked this out a couple of months ago.

Maybe this tip from 2005 will help?
