Change layer properties

Depending on the layer type defined in Layer properties , each layer has available options for data in a scene. For example, feature and scene layers can allow you to configure pop-ups or apply a filter, while some other layers have fewer options available, such as adjust the transparency or display layer in legend.

To change the layer properties, complete the following steps:

1. Verify that you are signed in to the portal and open Scene Viewer.
2. On the Designer toolbar, click Layer Manager to open the Layer Manager pane.
3. On the layer for which you want to change properties, click Options and click Layer properties to open the layer properties.

   You can also click the layer name to open the layer properties when styling options aren't available.

4. Change the layer properties described in the table below.
5. On the Designer toolbar, click Save to save the layer properties to the scene.
6. Click Done to return to the Layer Manager pane.
