Layer Browser


This tool allows you to "walk" up and down the layer list, displaying one layer at a time. As the layer number is advanced (either forward or backward), the previously displayed layers are turned off. This provides an aid to understanding the part's contents. The previous layer settings are restored upon closing of the dialog.

Layers With Objects

Browse Controls

This area of the dialog will probably where the most time is spent and contains controls to easily step through the layers in sequence.

Step to Previous Layer

Step to Next Layer

Fit View After Layer Change
