====== Layers&Block structure ======
The organization of the Model is done by using layers. These act like a hierachy to allow having all different stages/LOD and data of a model inside one single scene.
Every single Block in SE has many different models as described in ....
===== Basic Layertree =====
{{ :vrt:mainlayerwblock.jpg?200|}}
After creating a new Block a basic layer tree is constructed. The Main Layer has every other Layer as children. Below that there are layers for construction stages, subparts and dummies. The main layer hold information about cubeblock and misc stuff like mirroring or Icon render settings for example.
These layer dependent data is accesed trough the [[vrt:main_panel|Main panel]]
Its recommended to set the scene explorer to layer explorer to easily navigate the layer tree
If after the selection of an Layer its instantly deselected, close and reopen the Scene explorer
