Adding Track Layers

First, thanks for all the help I have received here.  I am looking to add track layers to a midi track but looking in the help file and searching this forum produced nothing (using the title of this post.)  So....I was watching a Cakewalk video about programming drums.  To add a layer to a midi track, the presenter expanded the midi track (which I did), then clicked on the keyboard which showed up in between the controls and data, which he followed by clicking on the "Show Layers" command.  When I do it, I get three choices:  Notes. 7Bit Values and Fit Content....but no "Show Layers" or other commands shown in the video.  So...... is it possible to add a layer to a midi track and what do I have to do to accomplish it?  Thanks in advance.

    Which version of Sonar are you using ? Show layers was done away with back in Sonar X1 (or X2) I believe.
    now its Comping mode.
     
    you should see the comping mode widget in the track box.
     

    Windows 8.1 X64 Sonar Platinum x64
    Custom built: Asrock z97 1150 - Intel I7 4790k - 16GB corsair DDR3 1600 - PNY SSD 220GB
    Focusrite Saffire 18I8 - Mackie Control

    Sorry, I am on a bunch of photography boards and the equipment, computer, OS is listed next to your name (assuming you filled it out.)  This is Sonar Platinum with the latest update.  I will look for comping.  It is confusing to watch videos etc., only to find out features are now gone.  Thanks for the help.

    Sonar Platinum (usually latest update), Win 10, too many software synth!
