The first little tip I wanted to let you guys know about is a tool that I recently found reading though another CAD blog. It is the SETBYLAYER command. I have no idea how long this has been around but man do I wish I had this 8 years ago.
What SETBYLAYER does is takes objects and blocks and set all its properties to By Layer. This tool shouldn't get a lot of use but every so often you find a block that has the color set to a specific color and you can't change the color for the life of you unless you the blocks. With this command you just type SETBYAYER, select the block(s) and hit enter a few times and BAM... done. It is very helful on files that were converted from Microstation that have cells that were converted to blocks.

Next command i wanted to share is TEXTTOFRONT. It isnt to hard to figure out what this command does. It brings all the text to the top of the draw order... BAM!
