Area Overlay

The Area Overlay is an overlay which is used for displaying multiple areas in one overlay. By default, the overlay does not display anything. When this overlay is added to a project, it can be activated by selecting the corresponding icon on the navigation panel. When activated, it displays the active areas as selected in the areas list. The areas appear in the color as selected in the area properties.

An Area Overlay has 3 properties which can be adjusted on the General Tab:
Name
- The name of the overlay, displayed as the title when hovering over its navigation panel icon and within the Overlay legend panel.
Has Parent
- This check box indicates if the overlay has a Parent Overlay or not.
Selecting areas
