### 2. Create custom geometry sub-layers

* Create sub-layers inside of the **`custom geometry`** layer to create display groups with individual display colors and visibility toggles in the web app.
* Once you have placed your geometry on the correct layers, hit **`Sync`** to send it to the web app.

{% hint style="info" %}
Finch displays only the first level of sub-layers:

> `custom geometry`
>
> > **`context buildings`** *(this layer will be displayed)*
> >
> > > `office`
> > >
> > > `apartments`

* In this case, Finch will display the layer **`context buildings`** as a group containing `office` and `apartments`.
* This feature can be used to show geometries with complexity, such as a building with facade detailing and windows, as one object group with multiple colors.
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The display color in Finch is controlled by the layer color in Rhino. If you want green plants and white context buildings, set the **`plants`** sub-layer to green and the **`context buildings`** sub-layer to white.
{% endhint %}

### 3. Toggle visibility in Finch

* In Finch, toggle the visibility of custom geometry in the **`Right Panel`**.
