Field Types

Layer has 27 field types to set up your category with. This makes Layer flexible enough to store pdf drawings, text, dates, phone numbers, emails, site photos and anything else you may need.

See below for all fields types to choose from. Our most used fields are the Text, Formatted Text, and Select fields which allow users to capture a majority of the data they need. Some fields will only exist within Revit Model Categories.

If you have a question about what is the best field type to use, jump into the support chat to ask. (See Layer Support)
