If you have a geometry or geometries on your screen and you want one to be on a different layer. Have your Project Manager page opened to the Layers window. Right mouse click “User Layers”, then “Add Layer” then name this layer so you can identify it easily.

At this point you can change the way the geometries will look, Continuous and so forth. You can select a different color for the geometries on this layer (default is white).

By default the layer is still not active, so any geometry creation will still be on the upper level layer. When you make this layer active, whatever you create, will be on this layer.
NOTE: To bring an existing geometry to a new layer, find the geometry under the APS Geometry, and simply drag and drop it to the layer you desire.



This allows you to enable or disable different geometries and tooling.

Steve Cobb did a terrific job researching my job files and creating a very lean schedule that hit all the key points.
I was able to become comfortable with all the areas I wanted, as well as many others.
