The Screen Layer Options are used to define options for new layers, or modify options for existing layers. Devices can be added to a layer by choosing the layer name from the drop-down list on the Levels/Layers Tab of the Format Multiple Objects dialog.
Name
Layers can have any name desired to describe the layer. The default naming convention is "Layer #".
Show Layer
If this box is checked, any objects on the diagram which are contained in this layer may be visible. This depends on the settings for low and high zoom level, described below. If the box is unchecked, however, then any objects contained in this layer will be hidden. Only objects that are visible will be used when calculating contours. Unlike Custom Display Detail, layers can be applied in both edit mode and run mode.
Selectable in Edit Mode
By unchecking this box the user prevents the objects contained in this layer of being with the mouse during Edit Mode. This is behavior is particularly desirable for elements (such as borders which are pretty much already fixed) when editing oneline diagrams.
Use Conditional Display by Zoom Level
Objects can be displayed or hidden based on the Screen Layer to which they are assigned and the current zoom level of the oneline diagram. Checking this box, and setting the Low Zoom Level and High Zoom Level fields, dictates at what zoom range the objects contained in the zoom level will be visible. If the zoom level is outside the range defined, any objects belonging to the screen layer will be hidden. This also applies to both edit mode and run mode.
Memo
This tab allows the user to enter text in order to describe this layer.
