Control which layers are visible per view with view-specific layers

Set which layers each view shows so internal text, external text and dimensions appear only where you want them.

1. View-specific layers in the design portal control which layers (for example internal or external text, or dimensions) are visible for a particular view.

2. View-specific layers prevent confusion and remove the need to switch back and forth between design and presentation.

3. Open the view manager to access the different views in a project.

5. Layers marked as overridden behave differently depending on the view's settings, so visibility can be tuned per view rather than globally.
