Stacking Layers

You can create a layer stacking and assign it to concept surfaces.


Before you begin: Open a 3D shape containing concept surfaces with assigned layers.
  1. Select a concept surface with an assigned layer.
    The first selected layer is added as reference layer to the layer list in the Layer Stacking Creation Wizard.
  2. To add additional layers to the stacking, select one surface at a time with a layer to be added to the layer list.
  3. Click Finish in the Layer Stacking Creation Wizard.
  4. In the LAYER STACKING context toolbar, click Assign Stacking and select a surface.
  5. In the work area, click Assign Stacking?
    The layer orientation is displayed by a vector symbol. The colors indicate the layer order in the stacking and the layer thickness.

    The LAYER STACKING panel provides a preview of the stacking.

    In the tree, a Stacking.x element is added to the Stacking Layers subtree. The check mark indicates that it is assigned to surfaces.
