LayerMakeCurrent

The LayerMakeCurrent command sets the current drawing layer to whichever layer the clicked entity belongs to. New entities will then be drawn on that layer automatically.

Usage​

  1. Type LayerMakeCurrent in the terminal or click the Make Current toolbar button (eyedropper icon).
  2. Click any entity on the canvas.
  3. The current layer is updated to match that entity's layer. The command finishes immediately.

Behaviour details​

  • If you click on empty canvas (no entity hit), the terminal shows no object found and the command stays active so you can try again.
  • Only the current layer setting is changed — no entities are modified.
  • The updated layer is reflected in the layer selector in the toolbar.
