Trimble Tilos Help
Use the Layers tab to specify which layers are visible and selectable. Every object in Tilos resides on a layer. Layers can be best compared to transparencies on an overhead projector. Layers temporarily hide objects by deactivating the relevant layer.
Click in a time-distance cell and select the Layers tab in the Object Properties pane.Â
Open a view over the Explorer and click in a cell.
Select the tab layer in the Details Toolbar.
Every layer has three options available for the display:
Display - Using this option you can show and hide a layer.
Active - If you deactivate this option, the layer is displayed, but the objects on this layer cannot be selected. (e.g. protected from moving by accident)
Print - If you deactivate this option, the objects in this layer will not be printed.
Furthermore, the sequence of the layer from the top to the bottom is equivalent to the order of display of the objects on the layer: A layer at the top of the list is in the foreground.
In the Tilos Explorer, expand, Library > Graphic > Layer.
Select a layer in the list and open the details using the button.
Select a color for the presentation:
Activity - Color for the activity line.
Activity Fill - Color for the background of the Activity fill.
Pattern - Color for the pattern of the Activity fill.
Open a view in the Explorer and click in a time-distance cell.
Select Use layer color on the Display tab in the Object Properties pane for the selected cell.
