Cell views in same panel could potentially use different technologies and number of such opened views may vary.

To associate a layer properties file with a technology use
Tools-->Manage Technologies-->{[myTechnology] V General-->{Layer Properties}}
The next time you start K-Layout the [myTechnology] will be on the main banner under the (T)
