How to create a Non-printable layer

[Anonymous]

Hi, I have made a search but could not find any topic fort his:

How do I create a non-printable layer?

Up to now I have been hiding layers that I do not want to print.

Any help would be much appreciated.

can't you turn layers on and off within plotmaker. leave layer on within ac and when you go to plot within pm, switch the layer off you don't want to print.

You could do that, but it would ruin the setup view set in plotmaker. A better solution would be to create two view sets; one to be imported in plotmaker and another working viewset with the non-printing layer turned on.

Ooop2,
This sounds like it might be a good candidate for the wish list. If you haven't already, you might consider posting it with an explainaation as to why you feel like it would be useful.

Well I will elaborate more on the benefit of such a layer and then posted it in the wish list.

Anyone who wants to help me can PM me their views/comments relating to the posibility of turning a layer to non-printable.

Thanks again to all.
