I've been using the Layer Toolbar to change layers, or to find the layer of a line. Pretty simple really. All I do is "click" the line in question, and the lines layer shows up in the layer toolbar. If I want to change the layer, all I do is use the toolbar to select another layer. I've been doing it for years. Today, I froze up AutoCAD somehow. No big deal, I just restarted. However, now for some reason the layer toolbar isn't working. It will let me change layers for drawing new objects, but I have to go to properties to see the layer of an object that I have currently selected. I can also change the layer from the properties menu. Does anybody have any idea of what happened. I temporarily lost my right click pop-up menu, but I seem to have gotten it working again. I have tried just restarting my computer, but this has made no difference.

Thanks
 
Look at your PICKFIRST variable. Should be 1
