Manage global layers from global preferences

Open the fourth global preferences button to manage system and custom layers, set them global or view-specific, and control rich view with finishes per layer.

1. Global layers are managed from the Global Preferences & Settings bar at the bottom left: its fifth button, Layer Sets, opens the Global Layers Settings panel.

2. Within it there are two options: system layers (such as Walls, Doors, Windows and Furniture) and custom layers.

3. Layers can be set as global or view-specific.

4. Rich view with finishes can be enabled or disabled per layer.

5. Layers separate system-generated elements from your own. Create custom layers to organise unit types such as base units, wall units and loft units, then use area selection or left selection to move items into the right layer. This keeps the design organised and makes review easier.
