      Modify the Layer Properties

      Many other settings can be adjusted by double-clicking the layer's node in the Layer Control. For example, it is possible to change the name of a layer in the General tab of the Layer Properties dialog. In addition, you can apply a Multiply Blend Mode on a polygon layer. This property allows you to see the base map by transparency, without changing the Opacity of the layer's fill color.
