Display Model: Layer Properties

Layer Properties	Description
Map Name	Specifies the name of the display model map.
Name	Displays the layer caption as displayed in the Display Manager. Related to <Name> in the (*.tbdmmap) file.
Feature Class	Displays the feature class name.
Group	Displays the Display Manager group.
Autoload	Specifies whether to draw the feature layer automatically upon selection of the display model. See also Setting Up Display Models.
Filter	Saves a filter that has been applied to the selected feature layer. Example—In Display Manager, right-click a feature layer and click Query To Filter Data. Define a filter. Example—Zoom into the drawing and click Generate Graphic. The filter is set to the extents of the current viewport. When you save the display model, the check box will be selected, and the filter will be saved in the LAYER file. Clear this option if you do not want to save the filter.
Confine To Viewport	Specifies whether the layer will have its viewport updated on Generate Graphics. Use this option to control which feature classes are represented in the current viewport and which are not. Select Confine To Viewport to draw feature data based on the current viewport. When you zoom out, features outside the viewport are not visible. Clear Confine To Viewport to draw all feature data without clipping. When you zoom out, features outside the viewport are visible and can be used as context for another Generate Graphic. For example, for feature layers that represent the base map content, or a map grid. See also Procedure: Set Global Map Options, Always Display Highlighted Features.
Visible	Specifies whether the layer is enabled in the Display Manager and the features are shown in the drawing. For example, to change multiple layers without having to click on each layer in the Display Manager.
Selectable	Specifies whether the layer is marked as Make Layer Selectable in the Display Manager. For example, to change multiple layers without having to right-click on each layer and without editing the (*.tbdmmap) file.
Source	Displays the industry model name for display models that contain layers from different industry models with the same name. For example, in a project with two water industry models, you can add two feature layers WA_POINT to the display model, one of each industry model. The source of each industry model is displayed.
Ref.	Specifies whether the layer is a referenced layer. Note: This setting can be changed only if you are saving a display model. Clear this option to create a copy of the layer (LM_Building_2.layer), leaving the original referenced layer file untouched. For example, to open a shared display model on a read-only network share, and to save it as a working copy in your own repository. See also Setting Up Display Models.
Path	Displays the path where the LAYER file is stored. The path is relative to the Repository Base Path that is specified in the application options. Note: The path also indicates whether the display model shares layers with other display models.
