The layer palette is part of the working tools on the left-hand panel. The layer palatte combines spatial Layers and Drawing Layers into the same panel. From the Layer Palette, you can adjust layer visibility, opacity, and grouping. You also have quick access to search the Layer Library, add a new spatial layer, or manage your layers’ governance and metadata.
The layer titlebar has the name of the tool, a search tool that will search all of the layers in the current layer tree, and a minimise carat.
The action buttons in Projects are New Drawing Layer and New Data layer.
New Drawing layer adds a new layer for your authored Features to live on.
New data Layer opens the Layer Library where you can search for existing data or add your own.
Spaces have only one action button: Add Data layer.
Lastly, the Save button saves the current layer state as the project default. The last saved layer state is how your project will open next time you access it.
The Layer Tree is the list of layers in your project.
A lot of data can be overwhelming. We've put some nice ways of making it easier in the layers menu.
