How to Move Back a Layer in InDesign

InDesign's layers functionality enables the graphic designer to create stacks of elements on a page, book, magazine or other document. This is a convenient way to change certain elements in the file independently of one another. Complex designs can be edited more efficiently; special effects can be added to one layer, while another layer can be rearranged without disturbing other layers in the document. Moving a layer to the back of a stack allows access to other layers that were behind it.

Instructions

      Open the InDesign document that contains the layers you want to rearrange. Open the Layers palette from the "Windows" menu if it is not already loaded on your desktop.

    • 2

      Click the layer you want to move back in the Layers palette.

      Drag the layer below other layers in the list. As you drag, the pointer turns into a hand icon. Stop at the point in the list where you want the layer to be positioned.
