The Legend view shows the layers displayed on the current Map. It also allows you to categorize the layers by grouping them in folders.
The context menu for this view also allows you to add a new folder, change the style of the selected layer, zoom to the layer, copy/paste layer, delete the layer, rename the layer, do operations to the layer, export the layer and view layer properties.
