* When using GstarCAD Classic workspace, find Format > Layer Tools > Unlock all layers, as shown in the following picture,

Enter “LAYULKALL”, as shown in the following picture,

You get the following prompt

After executing the command, all layers are unlocked and there would be “ All layers have been unlocked ” prompt in the Command Line,

What’s the difference between LAYULK and LAYULKALL ?

LAYULK is used to unlock the layer of a selected object, users could unlock a layer by selecting a object on it without specifying the layer name.

But with LAYULKALL command, users don’t need to specify any object or layer, all layers will be unlocked as soon as the command is executed.
