■ When you select multiple objects that have different active layers,
“(Multiple Active Layers)” appears.
The drop-down list displays all common layers (that is, with the same
name); layers not common to all are unavailable.
When you select multiple objects, layers not
common to all are unavailable on the
drop-down list.
■ You can turn on or off any layer in the expanded list by clicking its light
bulb icon. Turning off a layer hides its animation without deleting it.
To toggle a layer, click its light bulb icon.
■ You can include or exclude any layer from the output track by clicking its
plus/minus sign icon. The output track contains the sum of all included
layers. You can use this track to control other objects' tracks via MAXScript
and parameter wiring.
