layer management 2

[mechbull]

i received this message from a friend
i was asking what was wrong with my config.pro bc it had duplicated mapkeys 15 times inside

but the last thing he said was

Also, def_layer is the old school of thinking in layer management. I suggest that you setup layer rules in your start parts and get rid of the def_layers.

so my question to all of you is what is your company standards or your personal settings

this is whats in my config.pro

def_layer LAYER_AXIS axis
def_layer LAYER_SURFACE surface
def_layer LAYER_DATUM datum
def_layer LAYER_POINT points
def_layer LAYER_CURVE curve
def_layer LAYER_CSYS csys
def_layer LAYER_QUILT quilt

mechbull-
I'm using WF 2 and am getting the same thing; I keep getting multiple definitions of the same mapkey in my config.pro. Essentially, the Delete, Modify, Update functionality in the mapkey utility seems to be dysfunctional.
