Hi there. I'm new, and have some questions.

Bought the academic version a day ago, and I've been trying stuffs. Have some questions :

Is there any way to see you input map after having created the project ? I didn't found any way to see my curvature, or AO, found it pretty odd.
Is there any way to create a layer for a single map ? ( Other than Lowering the opacity. )
What does "Optimize mesh" do ?
Is it possible to work simultaneously on nDo and dDo ? After created a map from nDo, I tried to simply open dDo and add new map ... But something fucked up at some point. Should I work on the 2 separately ?
Is it normal the my curvature maps baked in nDo looks really bad ?..

Thanks for the answers.
