Then you press the "Check Layer" button and the program starts the layer execution process for specified "Wooden Lumber Yards" layer. By activating the option , the check will be performed taking into account only the maximum and minimum values of the intensities obtained from all combinations, excluding intermediate values, so that the process is completed in significantly shorter times. EXAMPLE: If you would now like to specify another group of parameters to which some of the members of the layer belong, follow the procedure below: Press the "Parameters" button and open the configuration dialog box again.

Double-clicking on this colored icon displays the following dialog box
