Architect or LandmarkUsing the Layermap worksheet

The creation of layers, classes, and viewports or views by the setup commands (Create Standard Viewports in Vectorworks Architect and Standard Naming in Vectorworks Architect and Landmark) is controlled through the use of the worksheet LayerMap.G, in the VA Setup Data-Imperial.vwx or VA Setup Data-Metric.vwx file (in the Vectorworks application folder [Vectorworks]\Plug-Ins\Common\Data). This worksheet contains the predefined class, layer, attribute, and visibility information needed to generate a completely ready-to-use project file at any scale or level of complexity.

Modifying these standards is not recommended, as it requires a large effort to manage and coordinate standards information.

The LayerMap.G worksheet applies to viewports on sheet layers created with the Create Standard Viewports command, or views created with the Create Corresponding View for Each Viewport option in the Create Standard Viewports dialog box.

The settings in the LayerMap.G worksheet are automatically applied when a new file is opened and one of the Setup commands is selected. If the LayerMap.G worksheet contained in the VA Setup Data-Imperial.vwx or VA Setup Data-Metric.vwx file is edited, all sheets created on that machine will use the new standards. However, a copy of the LayerMap.G worksheet can be included in a file (by importing it) and edited there. These custom settings will supersede any automated settings for that file only. This is a convenient way of sharing standards between offices and users, without modifying the default standards on an individual machine.

If a Vectorworks file contains a LayerMap.G worksheet, when the Create Standard Viewports command is selected, the Import LayerMap.G dialog box opens. Specify which worksheet to use.
