### 7.5. Forankre laget

Dersom du har eit flytande utval i biletet, vil dette bli vist i lagstabelen som eit “flytande lag” eller eit “flytande utval”. Så lenge dette flytande utvalet finst, kan du bare arbeidet på dette utvalet. Skal du arbeide på dei andre andre laga i biletet, må du først forankre det flytande laget til laget under. Dersom det ikkje er eit flytande utval i biletet, er denne kommandoen inaktiv.
