Description

Layers

Lists the currently available layers in this map chart, including their name, type and data table (for data layers). The check boxes under Visible allows you to temporarily hide a layer.

Add

Allows you to add a new layer of the selected type, or to duplicate the selected layer.

Settings

Opens the settings dialog for the selected layer.

Remove

Removes the selected layer from the map chart.

Move Forward

Moves the selected layer up in the list and, hence, forward in the order of which the map layers are displayed.

Move Backward

Moves the selected layer down in the list and, hence, backward in the order of which the map layers are displayed.

Interactive layer

Specifies the data layer where marking and highlighting should take place. Note that the interactive layer may be placed anywhere in the list; it does not have to be the topmost layer.

Tip: You can easily change the interactive layer using the Layers control.
