=Introduction=
When outputting GIS files in the shapefile format, no styling information is (or can be included). For example when viewing a [[Check_Files_2d_zsh_zpt | _zsh_zpt_check_P]], the user may wish to view whether the zpt (elevation point) has been raised, lowered, or no change has been applied. This GIS layer contains an attribute '''dz''' and the symbology options can be used to achieve this. This can be done manually, or more conveniently, the TUFLOW plugin comes packaged with preset styles for almost every TUFOW check file and input type. The methods for applying the default TUFLOW template styling to layers are outlined below.<Br>
: ''<b>Note: Since v3.3, the styling tool will work on GPKG layers.</b>''<br>
===Apply TUFLOW Style to Current Layer===
As the name implies, this will apply the symbology to the current layer in the layer control. If no template file exists for the layer type no change is made.<br>
Line 6 ⟶ 7:
[[File:Check files currentlayer.png||30px]]

This can also be accessed from the
===Apply TUFLOW Styles to Open Layers===
As the name implies, this will apply the symbology to all open layers in the layer control (even if the visibility is turned off). This is particularly useful if loading in the .qgs project file from TUFLOW as this loads all of the input and output GIS files for the simulation, after loading if this tool is applied all output files will have a symbology applied.

This can also be accessed from the the QGIS Menu '''Plugins >> TUFLOW >> Apply TUFLOW Styles to Open Layers'''.<br>

===Overwriting Style Templates===

The location of the .qml files:<Br>

'''Linux'''<br>

===Messages===
An additional styling option exists for the messages_P GIS layer (written to the log folder). The additional styling option can be accessed by right-clicking the message_P layer in the QGIS Layers Panel and under the TUFLOW sub-menu, select 'Filter messages by code'. This function will group messages by their code i.e. the error level (CHECK/WARNING/ERROR) and the error number. This can be useful when trying to understand the number unique messages.<br>

This functionality was made available in TUFLOW Plugin v3.9
