In my templates I have the layers set how I want them with parent and child configurations.
But when I create a new drawing from the template the layers reset to just being alphabetical.
Does anyone know how I stop this happening?
@vfrench this is the current expected behavior for template so there is not a way to stop it from happening. We can move this to a product suggestion to let the team know that there is a request for a change in behavior.
@Glynis D. that would be great as the resetting of the layers really makes having the template rather useless for me.
This post seems to address 2 of the issues that I'd love to see resolved.
a) If I sort my layers alphabetically (by clicking on the "Layer" name at the top of the layer list), and I select "Save Configuration", I would expect THAT would save as well. I can't understand any rationalization where that isn't saved. (and it is annoying that it doesn't)
I guess the caveat to that (as I think is requested by the OP) is that if you choose "not" to view the layers alphabetically (ie you press the "Layer" name once again), you see it in your chosen/arranged order - that sort-state should save as well.
b) I came to the post for a slightly different reason. If I create a layer and add child-layers to it, then I roll-up the parent layer and select "Save Configuration", I would expect that the rolled-up (or non-rolled-up) state of the parent layer would be saved with my layer configuration. Which it doesn't appear to be.
If someone knows if saving of the roll-up-state of a parent layer is possible - please let me know.
Otherwise, BB-gods, please add this to the heap of product improvement ideas.
