Filtering data and markups within the layer manager allows you to narrow down the selections displayed by excluding data or markups that do not meet certain criteria, enabling you to focus on the most relevant information.

Sorting will organise the existing data or markups into a specific order which can help you identify patterns, trends, and outliers more effectively.

Filtering and Sorting provide a more manageable and meaningful view of your project information, facilitating better analysis and decision-making.
