LAYER

Purpose:

To enable a user to hide or show layers from the current drawing.

A list of all different layers in the drawing and all layers currently selected are presented in the dialog. For each layer, a check box controls if it is selected.

The combo box Class number, description contains defined layer classes. The selection of such a class will add its layers to the layer list. The newly added layers are selected by default.

The user can select (or deselect) all the listed layers using the Select All check box.

Note: Changing treatment mode resets the list of selected layers.

The OK button closes the dialog and saves the changes.
