Position Layers

Definition

Position layers allow Shaper objects to have multiple positions, one in each layer. Position layers can then be used in the configuration system to create variants of a model or a product in which the position or the presence of certain objects is not the same.

Displaying Position Layers

Surfaces using position layers are displayed taking the layer hierarchy into account. Position layers indicated as visible are analyzed in the same order as they are listed in the Position Layers editor. For each surface, the first position assignment found is displayed.

For more information on creating position layers, see Position Layers (Editor).
