Currently, I use the Showrooom layout (v. 1.0.0) made by Trombomaniac and have it set to simply display thumbnails by media type descending.  Over the years, I've amassed a large 100+ collection of 3D discs and would love to emphasize them at least by displaying their thumbnails first followed by 2D BD then DVD.  Is this possible in this layout or is there another layout that can sort thumbnails in a similar manner?  Thanks for the replies!

First things first: Hurray for Showroom-Layout! 

So I played around a bit, and one way would be to create a custom media type (Tools -> Edit Media Types...), e.g. "3D". now give all your 3D BD this type additionally(1) and sort descending by media type. Small possible problem: profiles with media type "Blu-ray" and "DVD" will be sorted first.

A completely other approach would be "Collection Categories".

(1) if you switch the media type "Blu-ray" off you lose e.g. Regions.

Thanks Mithi.  Those are two good suggestions.  Regarding the creation of a Collection Category, does that require a custom media type exactly match the new category for it to contain a 3D disc?

No.
With Collection Categories you can move any title into a CC, just like you now move it from "Wish List" to "Owned" e.g.
