Layers Select All
Tips and Tricks • Jose Rivera • 15 July 2024

I remember the time when I was able to select all the layers with the built-in checkbox within the Layer Dialogue Box Window, and as you’ve noted since Archicad 26 this option was removed when the new folder structurer was introduced to improve the layer management within Archicad. Few have asked how it’s possible to select All Layers now. For that you have 2 alternatives.
Folder Selection
The first alternative to do this.is by using the new Folder System, moving the layers within a folder allow you to select everything that is within that folder, or set all the layers visibility within that folder by modifying this setting at the folder level.
Command
But in case you like the old way of working with layers without getting yourself into the folder structure, you can do this action by using the command Select All (“ctrl + a” in Windows, “cmd + a” in MacOS), this will allow you to select all the layers within a flat structure as you used to do before.
