1. Adding the New Layer

  1. Click "Add Layer": Select the "Add Layer" button to insert a new, default layer into your editor workspace.

  2. Editor Panel Pop-Up: The corresponding editor panel will appear (usually on the side of your screen).

2. Creating the Angle

  1. Find Layer Shape: In the editor panel, scroll down until you locate the section dedicated to Layer Shape.

  2. Set the Angle: Use the options within the Layer Shape section to define the slope or angle you need for the layer.

3. Adjusting Rotation (Clockwise/Anti-Clockwise)

Once the angle is set, you can fine-tune the orientation of the layer:

  1. Scroll to Rotation Controls: On the same editor panel, scroll further down until you find the Rotation Type controls.

  2. Select Rotation Type: Choose the direction you wish to rotate the layer:

    • Clockwise

    • Anti-Clockwise

  3. Define Rotation Value: Enter or select the specific angle value (e.g., 30, 45, 60 degrees) by which you want to rotate the layer.
