Layers enhancements

1.-It would be important to have a filter to see in a different way the inserted layers that come from modules, pln or xref
2.-In the main layers palette, there should be some setting to make the elements of frozen layers appear on screen with a degree of transparency or in a different or dimmer shade than the active ones to be able to distinguish them better.

3.-That layers can be configured not to be printed (Help Layer)

4.-Reinstate the buttons to activate or deactivate all layers as in previous versions.

5.-It would be interesting if there was a command to copy the layer combination characteristics of one layer to one or more layers.

 

Thanks

Sounds like you need to make 5 separate wishes in the wishlist.

Except ...

 

1 - xref already show separate layers in the layer dialogue.

3 - just don't include that help layer in the layer combinations you use to print.

4 - CTRL+A, or just drag you mouse to select multiple.

5 - in the layer dialogue, select the layer you want to update, select some or all or the layer combinations and change the properties for all of those selected combinations - they will all change at the same time.

You can even select multiple layers and multiple combinations and change them all at the same time.
