Working with Graphics and Layers > Layers

  Layer Options

The Layer Options dialog box can be used to rename the layer select the different color, show/hide layer and lock/unlock layer. When you use show/hide option the objects in that particular layer will be hidden/shown and when you use lock/unlock layer, the layer gets locked that is you will not be able to work on that layer. To do this you have to first click on the layer you want to work on and then select Layer Options from the Layer palettes fly-out menu.


  Stacking Order

Stacking is used to arrange a number of objects overlapping in the same Layer. There are four ways of stacking objects, they are Bring to Front, Bring Forward, Send backward and Send to Back. Bring to front moves the object in front of all the objects and Send to back moves the object behind all the objects. Bring Forward moves the object one position toward the top of the stacking order and Send Backward moves the object one position toward the bottom of the stacking order. To do this select the object you want to move and select the option you like from the Arrange drop-down menu.
