Sometimes, it's hard to select components or understand the hierarchy of components from the canvas. Layer Menu makes it easier to find the components in your canvas.
<img src="https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/resource.mixa.site/toolmark/img/layer-menu-img.png" priority="1">
Use Layer Menu for managing component visibility, order, and naming by following these steps:
<ol>
<li>Accessing the Layer Menu: First, ensure you are in <a href="/editor" title="the Toolmark Editor">the Toolmark Editor</a> where your canvas is located. The Layer Menu is designed to help you navigate through the components you've added to your canvas. It provides a structured view of all your components, making it easier to manage them.</li>
<li>Managing Component Visibility:
<ul>
<li>To control the visibility of a component, locate the eye icon next to the component's name in the Layer Menu.</li>
<li>Clicking on the eye icon will toggle the visibility of the component on the canvas. This is particularly useful when you want to focus on specific parts of your design without deleting or moving other components. It allows you to hide components temporarily while you work on others.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Changing Order or Parent Component:
<ul>
<li>The Layer Menu allows you to change the order of components or move them to different parent components through a simple drag-and-drop action.</li>
<li>Click and hold the component you wish to move, then drag it to its new position within the Layer Menu. This can change the visual stacking order of components on the canvas or nest a component within another, affecting how components are grouped and how they inherit properties from their parent components.</li>
<li>This feature is crucial for organizing your components logically and ensuring the hierarchy matches your design intent. It can also affect the layout and appearance of your tool, as parent-child relationships in components can dictate styling and behavior.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Renaming Components:
<ul>
<li>To rename a component, double-click on the component's name in the Layer Menu. This will allow you to edit the name directly.</li>
<li>Renaming components is a good practice for keeping your project organized and making it easier to reference specific components. It's especially helpful in complex projects with many components, as it allows you to quickly identify and locate them in the Layer Menu as well as in Canvas.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
With the Layer Menu, you can efficiently manage the components on your canvas. This includes controlling their visibility to streamline your workspace, reordering them or changing their parent components to refine your tool's structure and layout, and renaming them for better organization and clarity. These capabilities are essential for a smooth and productive design process in Toolmark, allowing you to build tools that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
