Get Layer and Change Linetype?

[hschmiedhofer]

Is there a way to get a reference to an existing layer via its name and change its linetype without stringifying and parsing the entire thing?

Hi,

Yes of course there is a way, you can get the reference to a layer if exist:

const layer = dxf.layer('layer_name'); // It returns undefined if not exist.

just make sure that the layer names do not contain some special characters: < > / \ "` : ; ? * | = .

Regards.
