Organising Layers
Adding and Customizng Folders
Add Folders: Create new folders to organize your layers by clicking the Add folder button from the Layers panel
Grouping: You can also select multiple layers from the panel, which will open a 'Group'. Clicking Group in the Layer toolbox, or right-clicking and selecting group will create a new folder called 'Group' that you can then rename as desired.
Renaming folders and layers
Right-Click to Rename: Rename any layer or folder at any time by right-clicking on it and selecting “Rename.”
Managing Layers: Moving, Visibility, and Zooming
1. Moving Layers:
To move a layer, simply click, drag and drop it into a new folder or to a different position in the list.
Base maps, images, and raster uploads can be reorganized the same way. Their position in the layers panel determines their order on the map.
Vector layers (such as polygons, lines, and point annotations) will always appear on top of base maps and rasters when visible, regardless of their order in the list.
2. Layer Visibility:
Use the visibility icon next to a layer to turn its visibility on or off.
Focus on a specific layer by clicking the zoom to fit icon to adjust the map view.
By utilizing these features, you can keep your Birdi workspace organized and tailored to your project’s needs. Enjoy seamless layer management for an optimized workflow!
