This is also known as Map Categories. Here you can select which map layers you wish to include in your map and whether or not you wish to display the information for that layer. You can also create your own Annotation layers which you may customise and share with other users if required.

If you have never added any layers / layer groups for the selected profile then the Map Categories window will display a message say “No Layers selected - Please select layers from layer catalogue”. Clicking this link is the same as clicking the Layers button.

If you wish to Reset your Layer Control back to the default layers then click the Reset Layers button button at the bottom of the Map Categories window.

 

If you cannot see the Map Categories overlay then you will need to click on the button marked with a green "1" in the image ; this may also be used to hide this overlay.

If you have not created any Annotation layers then there will also be a message with a link to adding your first layer as shown in the screenshot.
