The Overlay Toolbar provides quick access to adding, resizing, deskewing, and removing Overlay drawings, along with toggling current view.

On-Screen Takeoff Image Tab Overlay toolbar

By default, this toolbar is docked below the Image Toolbar, on the right side of the application.

Function	What it does/What it means...	Keyboard Shortcut
Add Overlay	Opens a dialog box where you select which plan/image you want to overlay to the current Plan
Resize Overlay	Launches the Resize Overlay wizard so you can resize the overlay to match the Base image/takeoff on the current page.	<Alt> + <R>
Align Overlay	Allows you to fine-tune alignment between the overlay and base images
Deskew Overlay	Just like deskewing a base image, allows you to correct for slightly skewed drawings (typically happens when paper plans are scanned)
Remove Overlay	Removes the overlay from current page - you can then select/add a new overlay
Toggle Base-Overlay-Both	Toggles the view between Base Image, Overlay, and Both. Button shading changes depending on which view is active: - Both; Base only; Overlay only;
