Layer Z-Ordering

PreviousOrganizing OverlaysNextPublishing Changes

Last updated 5 months ago

The Z-Order refers to how layers appear on top or beneath one another. Users of your project can reorder layers in the legend, but it can be helpful to specify a default ordering so that users don't have to adjust this setting while viewing layers on the map. Use the view menu to view the default order of your project's layers.

To move a layer so that it appears on top of another one, simply drag and drop the desired layer toward the top of the list.

Remember, changes to these settings will only be updated after

After choosing the Layer Z-Ordering view, you should see all layers in the project listed from top-most layer to bottom.
