the Layer Filter button is displayed adjacent to Layer Filter status text. The
Layer Filter button gives you access to the filters when the full Layer Filter
pane is closed.
If there are xrefs attached to the drawing, an xref node displays the names of
all the xrefs in the drawing and the layers in each xref. Layer filters defined
in xref files are not displayed.
If there are layers that contain property overrides, a Viewport Overrides node
is automatically created and displays those layers and the properties that
contain overrides. The Viewport Overrides filter displays only when the Layer
Properties Manager is accessed from a layout tab.
If there are new layers that have been added to the drawing since the layer
list was last evaluated (depending on how the LAYERNOTIFY system variable
is set), an Unreconciled New Layers filter is automatically created and displays
new layers that need to be reconciled.

you turn the layer on.

object snaps to objects on a locked layer and perform other operations
that do not modify those objects.
■ Unlock: Objects on the layer can be modified.
