Associating Configuration Elements to Graphic Layers

The basic workflow to associate graphic elements, custom properties, or named scripts to a graphic layer consists of these general steps:

1. Select a graphic layer from the Layers view.

2. Select items from the tabbed Elements, Named Scripts, and Custom Properties views to associate with the selected layer.

   Note: Multiple graphic elements, custom properties, or named scripts can be selected using the Shift key to select a range of listed items or the Ctrl key to select individual items from a list.

3. Drag and drop the selected graphic elements, custom properties, or scripts into the Layers view.

Configuration elements can be associated with a graphic layer by two methods:

• Active layer method: Select the check box to the left of the layer name. Then, drag and drop the configuration element anywhere within the Layers view. The configuration element is automatically associated to the correct folder of the active layer.

• Direct folder method: Select a layer and expand it to show the folders for the different types of configuration elements. Then, drag and drop the configuration element directly on the folder that matches the type of configuration element.
