Import Culture: Layer Object Properties

Use the Layer Object Properties page to set or override the display properties for all of the objects being imported. Some file types will have object properties embedded within the import file, and in some cases different objects in a single file will have different properties. Setting the layer properties on this page will override all of the properties information within the import file. Some file types, such as columnar ASCII and Shapefiles, don't contain any properties information, so you need to set the layer properties for these files.
