Selectable Layers

Selectable layers are layers that have the ability to be the active layer. When selecting features on the map, the layer that the features are selected from is called the Active Layer. The Active Layer is selected by clicking on the layer's label. Not all layers are selectable, however. Selectable Layers have blue text. The Active Layer is highlighted in light blue. In the example below, the Parcels, Soils and Voting Precincts are selectable layers and the Parcels has been selected as the Active Layer.

Steps for selecting the Active Layer from the list of Selectable Layers:

• Click on a Selectable Layer.

Note:

• There can only be one Active Layer selected at a time.
• The default Active Layer is the Parcels layer.
