    Default Layers and lines

    I have two questions.
    1) I have a bunch of individual parallel lines. How can I group the lines together so that when I select one line, I select them all?

    2) Is there a way to plot a drawings current layer list without jumping thru a bunch of hoops?

    1. Use the GROUP command. PICKSTYLE will need to be set to 1 or 3 for the group selection to work.

    2. Open the layer manager, CTRL+A to select all layers, CTRL+C to copy to the clipboard.
    Open Excel, CTRL+V to paste.
    Delete undesired columns as needed.

    Layer-list.lsp is a free lisp routine from http://jtbworld.com/autocad-layer-list-lsp that prints a list of layers in a drawing.
