This may cause problems when such DWG file is processed later - especially by other users.Ĭompare e.g. The standard "Plot" flag is now available at all user-defined layers - and - AutoCAD expects that the DEFPOINTS layer contains really only its own auxiliar dimensioning control points and it approaches the content of this layer in a special way.

The default property of this layer was used in this - as this layer is not plotted.īut such "misuse" of the DEFPOINTS layer is to be avoided. In historical versions of AutoCAD, the system layer for automatic auxiliar dimension points - DEFPOINTS - have been used to draw construction geometry in DWGs. Why you should not use the DEFPOINTS layer to draw geometry?
