Declaration

TImageEnLayerMView = class(TIECustomMView);

Description

The TImageEnLayerMView component is a descendent of TImageEnMView, but is designed to display the layers of a TImageEnView (i.e. all of the layers of a multi-layer file format, such as a PSD, IEN or SVG file).
To use TImageEnLayerMView, simply set the AttachedImageEnView property to a TImageEnView.

TImageEnLayerMView provides the following features:
◼Preview of all layers of a TImageEnView, with thumbnail, layer type, position, size and rotation information
◼Selection of thumbnails to select the relevant layer (Optional)
◼Buttons to set the Visible, Locked or IsMask status of layers (Optional)
◼Dragging of thumbnails to re-arrange them (Optional)
◼Dragging of thumbnails outside the control (or clicking Delete) to remove them (Optional)

Note: You can also display layers in a standard TImageEnMView, using AssignLayers
