How to turn on or off a layer?

• In the left panel, display the Map Contents panel, if necessary, by clicking the up arrow for Results Panel to minimize the Results Panel.
• Click the plus button next to a content item to display the layers within it.
• The check-box next to the layer indicates whether the layer is currently turned on.
• Click the check-box left to the layer name to turn the layer on or off. The map automatically redraws to reflect the changes in layer visibility.

• Some layers may not be visible at the current map scale (zoom level). These layers are called scale dependent. You may need to zoom the map in or out to see a particular layer displayed, even if its check-box is checked to draw.
• If layers have a plus button next to the name, you can expand the layer to display a legend for the layer. The legend may display a single symbol or multiple symbols for the layer.
  

I moved a map element (Tools, Results, etc.) off the screen. How can I get it back?

If you accidentally move an element outside the visible window, you may move it back by using the browser's scrollbars to scroll the window until the element is visible, then drag it back to the main area of the window.
