Stacking Order

You can change the stacking order of the layers by dragging the name of one layer above or below the name of another layer in the Layers palette. The topmost layers can often obstruct your view of the underlying images. To change this, you can reorder the layers by dragging them up or down in the Layers palette (Figures 3.7 to 3.10).
