Improving Regeneration through Controlling Layers - Part 2*Applies to: AutoCAD R12, 13, 14, 2000, 2000i, 2002, 2004 and 2005*When controlling the display of layers in your
drawing. You want to make sure that you set the layers on/off or
thawed/frozen as needed. Layers that are turned off will be
regenerated every time a regen is completed versus if the layers were
frozen instead. Frozen layers can't be interacted with unless they are
thawed like a layer that is turned off. Even though a layer is
turned off it still can be selected through the selection option of
All.
Note: So next time if you know that you
won't be needed objects on a layer that you are about to turn
off. Why don't you just freeze the layer instead, but if you
know that you are going to turn it back on in a couple of commands
just turn it off like you normally would.
