Showing or Hiding Layers
As you work in the Drawing or Camera view, some layers may be in the way or are used as references. You can hide these layers to make your work area less cluttered and easier to navigate. You can show and hide layers in the Timeline view in several different ways.
When using the Solo mode to show or hide layers, here's how it works:
- If you have anything selected, it is not affected.
- When multiple layers are selected and you enable/disable the Solo mode on any of those layers, it is applied to all the selected layers.
