# How do I edit Info Layers like Dialogue Numbers?

[Info Layers](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/what-are-info-layers-and-how-do-i-use-them-1gkr5qc/) are regenerated automatically each time your script changes — every new revision, every customization tweak. That auto-regeneration is what makes Info Layers powerful, but it also means they aren't editable by default. To edit an Info Layer's individual annotations, **duplicate** it first — duplication creates an editable copy you can adjust like any other Layer.

|| 📝 NOTE: Info Layers are an [Industry Pro](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/what-is-scriptation-industry-pro-1jfjecg/) feature.

### How to duplicate an Info Layer

1. Open the Layers sidebar and find the Info Layer you want to edit. Next to each Info Layer is a boxed plus icon, **[ + ]**. Tap it to begin duplicating;
2. You'll be prompted to **Copy Info Layer**, with a note that "this will duplicate the selected layer and convert the data into editable annotations." Tap **Yes**;

3. The duplicated Info Layer appears in **My Layers** as your active layer, and the auto-generated version is toggled off automatically.

### What you can do with a duplicated Info Layer

Once duplicated, the copy is a regular editable Layer — you can:

* **Edit individual annotations** — move, resize, recolor, or delete them.
* [**Merge**](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-to-merge-layers-1k9kad7/) it into another Layer to combine your edits with other annotation work.
* [**Export**](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-to-share-layers-with-export-14uqv6c/) or [**share**](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-to-share-layers-with-export-14uqv6c/) it like any other Layer.
* [**Transfer**](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/can-i-transfer-multiple-layers-at-a-time-e0bd0w/) it to a new draft along with your other annotations.

||| ⚠️ HEADS UP: When you duplicate an Info Layer, the copy is **frozen** at that moment — changes you make later to the Info Layer's appearance settings won't affect the duplicate. To apply updated customizations, **regenerate** the Info Layer and duplicate it again. Your earlier edits won't carry over to the new duplicate.

### Want to start over?

If you've duplicated an Info Layer, made edits, and want to reset:

1. Toggle the Info Layer back on in the Layers sidebar — it'll regenerate fresh.
2. Delete the edited duplicate from **My Layers** if you no longer need it.
