  • In 2D Layout Mode, choose the Design » Board Layers & Colors command (PCB Editor), or choose the Tools » Layers & Colors command (PCB Library Editor).
  • Press the L key.
To access 2D view-related tabs, either ensure the workspace is in 2D Layout Mode prior to accessing the dialog, or select a 2D configuration in the Select PCB View Configuration region, once the dialog is accessed.
The Show/Hide tab can also be accessed directly, by choosing the Options » Show/Hide command from the workspace's right-click context menu. The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+D is also available.
