can't delete a layer?

Post by kohledfusion »

Are you unable to delete a layer? I finally figured out why I couldn't!

I would delete all items on a layer, then delete the layer via Drawing Manager. Yet, the next time I opened the file, the layer was back, sometimes duplicated AND assigned to the select tool. Tried to delete it again, no luck. It would reappear the next time I opened the file.

Turns out I had created a STYLE tied to that layer. As soon as I deleted the style, the offending layer could be deleted for good.

Hope this will save someone else a bit of teeth gnashing & frustration.
