There is no configuration OOTB to show/hide different modes.

You can do it though using javascript.

1. Create a servlet to check current user group and return false if user is not part of layout group, otherwise true.

2. Create a clientlibs 'cq.authoring.dialog' with javscript, in javscript call above servlet and based on response hide layout option

 

Example :

$( document ).ready(function() { $.get("demo_servlet.json", function(data, status){ //console.log("Data: " + data + "\nStatus: " + status); if(data === 'false'){ $('#selectlayer-popover .editor-GlobalBar-layerSwitcherPopoverContent .coral3-ButtonList-item[data-layer="Layouting"]').hide(); } }); });

You can use a custom rendering condition to overlay the standard action and impose specific conditions that must be fulfilled before it is rendered.
