Use the Entity Info box to assign individual objects to whatever layers you choose.
This is different from other programs, such as PhotoShop, where objects actually reside on different layers it’s the digital equivalent of the old commercial-art technique of composing an advertisement or book cover by pasting different elements onto separate layers of clear acetate.īut in SketchUp, it’s best to keep all the objects-components, groups, etc.-on Layer 0.And never mess with Layer 0 by deleting it or making it not visible.
In SketchUp, layers only control visibility. This will be a long-winded answer, and at least one SketchUp Sage may have something better to say.
