2012

Dynamically displays objects on layers that you select in the Layer list.
Summary
The number of layers in the drawing are displayed in the dialog box title. You
can change the current layer state when you exit, save layer states, and purge
layers that are not referenced.
You can use the Layer Walk dialog box in a paper space viewport to select
layers to turn on and thaw in the layer table and the current viewport. Any
layer that is not selected in the Layer list is frozen in the current viewport.
You can change the display of one viewport without altering the display of
another viewport.
List of Options
The following options are displayed.
Filter
Turns an active filter on and off. When this check box is selected, the list
displays only those layers that match the active filter. When this check box
is cleared, the full list of layers is displayed. (This option is available only when
there is an active filter.) To turn on an active filter, in the filter list, either
enter a wildcard and press Enter, or select a saved filter.
