LAYMRG

Sometimes you may wonder if there is a way to merge two or more layers in a drawing that are not setup properly. Well, there is.

LAYMRG allows you to pick objects on the layer(s) you wish to be changed, and then you pick the object of the layer you want them to merge to. Very simple and very easy to use.

IMAGEFRAME

It seems in AutoCAD 2005, our options for the IMAGEFRAME command were ON/OFF. In 2008, our options are 0, 1 and 2. 0 = OFF, 1 = ON, and 2 displays the imageframe, but does not plot it. When working with images, it’s a lot easier to have the frame displayed, and I love the options of having it not plot. Just an FYI.
