# Controlling the Display of a Layer or Layer Group

Two tools allow you to manage how layers and layer groups are displayed:

* One tool lets you **turn the display on or off** for a layer or group on the map.
* The other allows you to **enable or disable the visibility settings** configured for the layer or group. These settings are described in detail in the [Properties](https://docs.jmapcloud.io/en/jmap-cloud-portal/user-guide-for-jmap-cloud-portal/configuring-project-data/configuring-a-layer/layer-properties) section.

**To access these functions**:
