Create new layer: Creates a new layer and activates it.
Show layer: The display of the active scene (i.e. the contained elements) is activated or
deactivated.
Rename layer: Rename the marked layer.
Delete layer: The marked layer and all elements that are contained are deleted.
Functions to create annotations and dimensioning refer to the active layer. That means that new
dimensioning and annotations are inserted into the layer that is active when the annotation
element is created. The active layer again belongs to the active scene.
By calling the context menu for an annotation or dimensioning element, you can execute
different actions for the element:
Create new layer: A new layer is created and activated (corresponding to the context menu for
layers)
Show element: The active element will be displayed or hidden.
Edit element: Edit the marked element. Corresponding to the selected annotation or dimensioning
element you can edit the identifier of the element and create or edit a message belonging to the
element.
Assign view: The current view settings are saved within the marked element. Each element
saves the view settings (e.g. zoom and rotation) that are active at the time of its creation. Using
this function you can replace the view settings subsequently.
Restore view: The view settings of the marked element are applied.
Delete element: The marked element is deleted.
HINT: The tree view containing the layers of the active scene supports direct manipulation.
Using drag & drop you can displace annotations and dimensioning between layers. The identifier
of most elements of the tree as well as the display status of the layers (represented by a
checkmark) can be changed directly in the tree view.
