Renaming a vector layer

Renaming a vector layer

In every new model, the default vector layer is named Default Layer. All vector layers you create are named Vector Layer, and given a unique number. When you import vector artwork, the new vector layer uses the name of the vector file from which it is created. You can rename any of the vector layers in a model.

To rename a vector layer:

  1. In the Project Tree, select the vector layer you want to rename. Its panel is displayed below the splitter bar.
  2. Enter a new Name.
  3. Click Apply.
