Which command matches the layer of selected objects to the layer of a destination object?
Answer: LAYMCH
LAYMCH (Layer Match) lets you select source objects and then pick a target object; all source objects are moved to the layer of the target object.
What does the LAYISO command do?
Answer: Isolates selected layers by hiding or locking all other layers
LAYISO turns off or locks all layers except those of the selected objects, letting you focus on specific geometry without distractions from other layers.
Which AutoCAD feature allows you to group layers with filters so only layers matching specific naming criteria appear in the Layer Properties Manager?
Answer: Layer Property Filter
A Layer Property Filter uses criteria such as layer name patterns, color, or linetype to display only matching layers in the Layer Properties Manager, streamlining management in large drawings.
What is the LINETYPE command used for in AutoCAD?
Answer: Loading, creating, and managing linetype definitions for use in the drawing
The LINETYPE command opens the Linetype Manager where you load linetypes from LIN files, create custom linetypes, and set the current linetype.
Which system variable scales all non-continuous linetypes globally in model space?
Answer: LTSCALE
LTSCALE multiplies the base linetype pattern length for all objects in the drawing; increasing it makes dashes and spaces appear longer, adjusting visibility at different zoom levels.
What property setting of 'ByLayer' means for an object's color or linetype?
Answer: The object inherits the color or linetype assigned to the layer it resides on
Setting an object's color or linetype to ByLayer means the object automatically displays whatever color or linetype is assigned to its layer, enabling centralized control through the Layer Properties Manager.
