I recently changed my displays and now the layer manager does not display.

How do I resynch for the layer manager. When I try opening the manager, datacad becomes frozen until I hit the esc key.

Hold Ctrl+Shift while opening the Layer Manager.

Try this: courtesy for Mark Toce, works a treat

Close all drawing files and then exit DataCAD. Open "Computer" and then go to the C:\DataCAD 17\Support Files\ folder. Double-click on "dcadwindialogs.gui" to open the file using Notepad. locate and delete the following section (your values will be different):

[LyrMgr]
Maximized=0
Left=1610
Top=204
Width=664
Height=530
Buttons Left=1
Text Buttons=1

Save changes, exit the file, and then restart DataCAD. The Layer Manager will now open in the default position, at the center of your primary monitor.
