Adding and removing overlays is a generic process, however, certain overlays are dependent on other assets being present too, such as indicators, terrains, vacancy, images, etc. For more information please refer to the respective main articles for the specific overlays.

Example of a source overlay

The source overlay is an Overlay which displays the datasets/sources that are used for generating the project.

When initially adding the source overlay, the overlay is white. At the panel on the right, all the datasets that are used for or in the project are listed. These can be checked or unchecked to see where this dataset is used.
