Translate Layers

This command renames layers using a lookup table with pairs of original and renamed layer names. This command can be used to convert the layers for a drawing from another source to match your layer standards. The layer names are entered in a spreadsheet. The Add, Insert, Delete and Sort buttons work on the spreadsheet rows. The Report button makes a report for the layer assignments. The SaveAs and Load functions store and recall the layer assignments to a .LTF file for sharing the settings or keeping different sets of layer assignments.
