Interface Layer

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

public interface Layer
extends Serializable

Represents a layer contained by a CAD drawing.

The Layer interface defines the contract for accessing and manipulating a layer within a CAD drawing in the GroupDocs.Viewer component. It provides methods to retrieve information such as the layer name, visibility, and other properties.

Example usage:

 try (Viewer viewer = new Viewer("document.mpt")) {
     CadViewInfo viewInfo = (CadViewInfo) viewer.getViewInfo(ViewInfoOptions.forHtmlView());
     List<Layer> layers = viewInfo.getLayers();
     for (Layer layer : layers) {
         // Use the layer object for further operations
     }
 }
 

Note: The default implementation of this interface is LayerImpl.
