A summary of the options is described below and more details are given further on:
* '''<u>[[QGIS_TUFLOW_Increment_Layer#Increment_Layer_Only|Increment Layer Only]]</u>''' - this only saves the individual layer from the GPKG database into a new or existing GPKG database. Other layers in the GPKG will not be copied.

== Increment Layer and Preserve Database ==
This options gives the user the ability to copy or increment multiple layers from the same GPKG. All layers in the GPKG will be listed for the user to decide what to do with: the options are to copy, increment, or discard. A given layer will be copied if it is checked on, it will be incremented if is checked on and new name is provided in the right column, and a given layer will discarded (i.e. not copied) if the layer is checked off. The tool will automatically give an incremented name of the layer selected in the dropdown box and will automatically update the datasource of any open layers in QGIS if required. To increment multiple layers within the same GPKG, it is possible to manually edit the filename of any layer in the incremented the GPKG within the 'Incremented Layer' column.<br>

If the user has the '''File Management''' plugin installed, an option to increment the active layer is also available. This simply renames the layer inside the GPKG (no copying is done in this step) and allows the usual workflow of incrementing names to be used with this approach. The File Management plugin is required as this plugin has solved the problem of renaming a layer that is actively open in QGIS.<Br>
