The export and import of layer configuration files (*.elc) allows you to save the layer configuration of the current project as a standard setting, to transfer this to another project or to make it available to another user.
Preconditions:
- You have opened a project.
- You have opened the layer management: Tab Tools > Command group Management > Layers.
Export the layer management configuration
- In the Layer management - <Project name> dialog click
(Export).
By default the current project name is preset as the name of the configuration file to be exported in the File name field. - If desired, change the target directory and the name of the file to be exported and click [Save].
Import the layer management configuration
- In the Layer management - <Project name> dialog click
(Import). - If necessary, navigate to the directory containing the desired configuration file (*.elc). Select the file and click [Open]. If the configuration file contains user-defined layers that are not present in the current project, these layers are created. User-defined layers that exist in both the configuration file and in the current project are reconfigured according to the settings in the configuration file.
