Layer visibility shortcuts in CAXA Draft
If you have many layers in your CAXA Draft drawing and you only want to view one of them, rather than go to all the trouble of one by one turning all the others off. Type in "layiso", press enter and select an item from the layer you want to only view, press Enter again. All other layers will be turned off. Then when you want all layers to be turned back on just type "layon" and press Enter.
