Opening a Layout

A layout is a VCMX file that allows you to save your work in the 3D and drawing worlds. Layouts are always opened in the 3D world and contain references to components, layout items and settings for a scene. A layout is an archive file, so when you open a layout its contents are extracted and/or downloaded to your device.

  1. In the eCatalog panel, click a collection or source.
  2. At the bottom of the eCatalog panel, select the Layouts check box to display items that are layouts.
  3. Find the layout you want to open, and then drag that layout into the 3D world.

Tip: You can press CTRL+O to access options for opening a layout from a recent location or elsewhere on your device.
