Hide Layers Request

    Correct me if missed the setting for this topic.  I do save my processed feature codes on my main project.  Some projects could more then other and will have Pre and Post topo's of the project. I am sure a lot of us after processing the points and getting the data we need we don't look at that layer any more.  So after trying to hide some layers that I use once or abit more,  I am unable to hide layer i choose not to see. 

    I have click on the advanced view filter setting and it will hide all my used layers.  I keep all my topos at the bottom of my layer list, it is just overwhelming at time seeing so many layers.  I even place empty layers between useable layers.  This will be good on copied filters.

    When you say Hide Layers - you mean hide the layer in the View Filter Manager list vs hide the data on the layer I am assuming. Currently that is not possible - it has been requested previously and is on the list at Trimble that I can assure you.

     

    Depending on what data is on those layers, you could export the data to VCL files and then delete it in the current project and then remove the layers that are now empty. If you bring the VCL back into the project it will recreate the Layers and Layer Groups again as needed. VCL is a good way to archive out parts of a project that are "getting in the way" but there is no other way to do this at present.
