Load
Loads layers in the Translate To list using a drawing, drawing template, or
standards file that you specify. If the specified file contains saved layer
mappings, those mappings are applied to the layers in the Translate From
list and are displayed in Layer Translation Mappings.
You can load layers from more than one file. If you load a file that contains
layers of the same name as layers already loaded, the original layers are
retained and the duplicate layers are ignored. Similarly, if you load a file
containing mappings that duplicate mappings already loaded, the original
mappings are retained and the duplicates are ignored.
New
Defines a new layer to be shown in the Translate To list for translation. If
you select a Translate To layer before choosing New, the selected layer’s
properties are used as defaults for the new layer. You cannot create a new
layer with the same name as an existing layer.
Remove
Removes the selected translation mapping from the Layer Translation
Mappings list.
Save
Saves the current layer translation mappings to a file for later use.
Layer mappings are saved in the DWG or DWS file format. You can replace
an existing file or create a new file. The Layer Translator creates the
referenced layers in the file and stores the layer mappings in each layer. All
linetypes used by those layers are also copied into the file.
Select
Selects the layers specified in Selection Filter.
Selection Filter
Specifies layers to be selected in the Translate From list, using a naming
pattern that can include wild-cards. For a list of valid wild-cards, see the
table in “Filter and Sort the List of Layers” in the User’s Guide. The layers
identified by the selection filter are selected in addition to any layers
previously selected.
Map
Maps the layers selected in Translate From to the layer selected in Translate
To.
