+**Viewer**\\
+When launching the Orbit 3D Mapping Viewer from the toolbar, a new tab will be opened in the default browser of the user. If there is no window active yet in that browser, then a new window will be launched. The new window shows the [[203:products:3dm_plugins|3D Mapping Viewer Welcome page]].\\
+On opening a publication or viewer, the Footprints of the opened [[203:viewer:sidebars:resources|resources]] and Field of Views are made visible in the host application and are updated when they are changed in the 3D Mapping Viewer.
+**Footprints**\\
+Option to disable the visibility of Orbit layers (Footprints, Field of Views and Measurements) in the host application. \\
+**Pick location**\\
+Pick a location on the map canvas in the host application to refocus all opened Views and the Reference View in the Orbit 3D Mapping Viewer to the chosen location.
+**Layers**\\
+This option gives the possibility to visualize features from an external layer on the 3D Mapping Viewer. The features are visualized in the 3D Mapping Viewer using standard formatting. And a new resource is added to the [[203:viewer:sidebars:resources|]]. \\
+Steps to be followed:
+  * Select one or more features in the host from which the overlay should be made.
+  * Click the button to visualize the selected features as an overlay on the Orbit 3D Mapping Viewer. \\
+  * Add new features to the existing overlay: Make a new selection in the host (from the same layer or another) and visualize them on the 3D Mapping Viewer. A combination of different layer types is possible.\\
+  * Clear the complete overlay: Click on the button in the toolbar without selecting any features in the host.
+**Measurements**\\
+This option gives the possibility to save measurements from the Orbit 3D Mapping Viewer in an existing layer in the host.
+Steps to be followed:
+  * Add a layer to the host or use layer 0.
+  * Make sure the layer you wish to save features in, is the active layer.
+  * Execute a measurement in the Orbit 3D Mapping Viewer. While measuring, the measurement object is visualized in the host as part of the active layer.
+  * Click the button in Plugin to add the measurement object to the active layer in the host.
+**Help**\\
+Orbit Knowledge Base is opened.
 All plugins have their specifics, related to their host application. But launching the Viewer from the host application is the same for all cases. At the start-up, a new tab in the standard browser is opened. If there is no browser opened yet on the computer than a new browser window will be launched.\\
