 Topic: LAYER PROPERTIES PALETTE
Posted: 23.Dec.2010 at 00:02 |
The icon, when I point to it shows 'Layers Properties Manager'. It resembles three gray sheets of paper stacked on top of each other. By "fly down" I mean 'drop down'. I have to restore my computer every day in order for my layers to drop down. Please Help, Kip

I'm sorry but I don't get what you mean. Is it layer manager palette or properties palette? And what do you mean by fly down? I do hear some problems that layer properties manager as a palette, but works fine as old dialog box. If that's the problem, you can try using CLASSICLAYER.

For some reason I can't seem to get this to work. I have had this same problem in the past and I have re-installed AutoCAD and it fixed the problem. The reason I haven't tried this is because when I pick "add or remove programs, change, re-install or repair" I have three options. "re-install AutoCAD, repair registry, or repair errors in my installation. I am not sure which one I selected previously and I don't want to pick the wrong one. Any solutions to this. Thanks for your continued help. Kip

Try to Anchor it and see if that helps.
To anchor it, click on its 'properties' icon (top-left of sidebar beneath the 'Close' and 'Auto Hide' icons), then click on 'Anchor-left <'.

I have my palette at the top left hand side of my drawing. I have tried to open it with the tool bar docked and undocked. I have also tried to move my tool bar to a different location. This still does not work. Anything else that I can try. Thanks, Kip

Is it anchored or docked? Or is it just floating?
When mine was just floating I seemed to have more issues with it not closing up. Since I anchored it to the left, however, I haven't had any problems with it.

I am having trouble getting my properties palette to fly down. Sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't. Any solutions to what I am doing to make this happen. Thanks, Kip
