Managing Layers in Layout

Written by Shelby Rayne

Q: I added a tree, landmark, or other object to my layout, but I can't see it. How do I bring it to the front or send it behind other items?

A: Layout includes a Layers feature that allows you to control the order of objects in your garden plan.

To change which items appear in front or behind others:

  1. Click the Layers icon in the left toolbar.

  2. Locate the item you want to move in the Layers panel.

  3. Click and drag the item higher or lower in the list.

    • Items at the top of the list appear in front of other objects.

    • Items lower in the list appear behind other objects.

  4. Release the item in its new position.

This can be helpful when working with trees, landmarks, planting locations, GreenStalks, and other objects that may overlap in your layout.

You can also use the visibility icon in the Layers panel to temporarily hide objects while editing your plan.
