Layer Control

Layers can be used for separating different types of entities from each other for display purposes. For example, toolpaths would normally be on different layers from the geometry of a part model.

All layer control is via the Layers Window and the Layer drop down list in the Standard toolbar.

When EdgeCAM is started, the default layer is Geometry Geometry layer in drop-down list.

The Layers Window displays the current set of available layers, listing their names and visibility status. Please note that only layers that are visible can be drawn on.
