LOFF	LayersOff	Turn off the layers listed and turn all other layers on
LON	LayersOn	Turn on the layers listed and turn all other layers off
PARTOFF	PartOff	Turn off the layers listed but do not change other layers
PARTON	PartOn	Turn on the layers listed but do not change other layers
ROOMLAYER	RoomLayer	Room Layer, used for various data mining routines
SHOWALL	ShowAll	Include and Force display of all layers in the output file
TEXTLAYER	TextLayer	Text Layer, used for various data mining routines
LT		Layer Table File Name

Note: These JSON Parameters are in the “Layers” section, not the “General” section

Layer Visibility

The following table defines what layers are included (present in the file) and visible (shown in the file) in three cases: using no parameters, IncludeAll, and ShowAll.

Parameter	Included	Visible
None	No	No
-IncludeAll	Yes	No
-ShowAll	Yes	Yes

Hatch Layer

PARAMETER	HT
Purpose	This parameter controls which layer(s) are used for Hatch Layer processing.
Example	-HL=FM-AREA-STANDARD
JSON	{“RoomLayer”: “FM-AREA-STANDARD”}
Use	SVG

Include All

PARAMETER	IncludeALL
Purpose	This parameter will cause all layers to be included in the output file. Layer visibility will be dependent on layer visibility in the input file.
Example	-IncludeALL
Alias	-IncludeAllLayers -IAL
JSON	{“IncludeALL”: “On”}
Use	SVG

Layers Off

PARAMETER	LAYERS_OFF
Purpose	This parameter controls which Layers are off in the file. All other layers will be on.
Example	-LOFF=0;LAY1;LAY2
JSON	{“LayersOff”: “0;LAY1;LAY2”} {“LayersOff”: [“0”,“LAY1”,“LAY2”]}
Alias	-LOFF
Use	With all graphic formats

Layers On

PARAMETER	LAYERS_ON
Purpose	This parameter controls which Layers are on in the file. All other layers will be off.
Example	-LON=0;LAY1;LAY2
JSON	{“LayersOn”: “0;LAY1;LAY2”} {“LayersOn”: [“0”,“LAY1”,“LAY2”]}
Alias	-LON
Use	With all graphic formats
Note	-LON=* is an alias for ShowAllLayers and forces all layers to be displayed.

Part Off

PARAMETER	PART_OFF
Purpose	This parameter controls which Layers are forecd off in the file. The layers status of any layers not listed is unaffected.
Example	-PARTOFF=0;LAY1;LAY2
JSON	{“PartOff”: “0;LAY1;LAY2”} {“PartOff”: [“0”,“LAY1”,“LAY2”]}
Alias	-PARTOFF
Use	With all graphic formats

Part On

PARAMETER	PART_ON
Purpose	This parameter controls which Layers are forced on in the file. The layers status of any layers not listed is unaffected.
Example	-PARTON=0;LAY1;LAY2
JSON	{“PartOn”: “0;LAY1;LAY2”} {“PartOn”: [“0”,“LAY1”,“LAY2”]}
Alias	-PARTON
Use	With all graphic formats

Room Layer

PARAMETER	RL
Purpose	This parameter controls which layer(s) are used for Room Layer processing.
Example	-RL=RM$
JSON	{“RoomLayer”: “RM$”}
Use	SVG

Show All Layers

PARAMETER	SHOWALLLAYERS
Purpose	The parameter Include and Force display of all layers in the output file.
Example	-ShowAllLayers
Alias	-ShowAll -SAL
JSON	{“ShowAllLayers”: “On”}
Use	SVG

Text Layer

PARAMETER	TL
Purpose	This parameter controls which layer(s) are used for Text Layer processing.
Example	-TL=RM$TXT
JSON	{“TextLayer”: “RM$TXT”}
Use	SVG

Layer Table

PARAMETER	LT
Purpose	This parameter defines the name for an external file with layer status information. The format of the file is defined in the Layer Table Section.
Example	-LT
Alias	None
Use	With all graphic formats
