Adding new layers and measurements to a layer
There are several ways to add objects to an existing layer:
Moving a layer or measurement to another layer
You can move layers and measurements from one layer to another. Select one or Shift-select multiple objects and drag to the desired layer.
Grouping/Ungrouping layers or measurements
Grouping layers can be really handy, for example, if want to be able to move multiple items at once.
You can group or ungroup layers and measurements using either of the methods below (remember to hold down the SHIFT key when selecting multiple objects, whether in Layer Manager or on the map).
Either from Layer Manager or directly on the map:
Select the layers/measurements you want to group, right-click and select Group or Ungroup .
You can next layers within layers by dragging the layer to beneath the destination layer. You'll see a blue underline indicating that this is the parent layer. Drop it here.
You can't nest measurements within measurements. If you want to nest a measurement, first put it in a layer.
