You can organize Layer into layer groups to organize the objects of certain layers, for example, by feature, material, or project section. Sub-planes are also possible in this structure. Layer groups thus make it easier to display objects with common properties.
Layer groups can be created and managed in the Layer Manager.
Creating a layer group
Click the
button in the toolbar of the Layer Manager. Then, enter a suitable name in the "New Layer Group" dialog box.
In this way, you can create multiple layer groups. If you need a subgroup, select the relevant layer group in the navigator of the Layer Manager. Then, use the
button to create the subgroup.
You can create as many planes for groupings as you need. If you assign a layer to a layer group, this layer automatically also becomes part of the parent layer group.
Assigning layers
To assign a layer to a layer group, click the entry in the Layer No. column (1). Multiple selection is also possible. Then, drag the marked layer or layers to the desired layer group in the navigator (2).
You can also assign the layers via the shortcut menu of the selection.
Removing a layer from a layer group
If you accidentally assigned a layer to a layer group, you can remove it from the group via the layer's shortcut menu. Simply click the incorrect entry: The assignment is removed and the check mark disappears.
