To do this I’ll need to create a couple of new layers. I want a separate layer for the pocket, the insert card and the label. The next thing I’m going to do is organize each design element into its own layer. Renaming your layers will make it easy to know which layer goes with the corresponding shape or object. *Fun fact: “Polygon” is the default layer name for objects. Type the new name of your layer and click Enter to save. Right click on the layer you want to name.Double click the layer you want to name.To make things easier on myself, the first thing I’m going to do with my shape is to rename each layer so I know which specific layer I’m working with. This helps me to know which object I’m working with. Whichever layer is highlighted in the layers pane is the layer you are currently working with. As I click on an element in the design, the layer for that element is highlighted in the layer pane as well as on my design page. See the bullet points under Layer 1? Each bullet point designates a separate layer. In the Library Pocket & Card design, each element was created as a separate layer. Designer Edition – bottom right toolbar.The toolbar location varies according to which version of Silhouette Studio® you own. Click the layers icon on your toolbar.Open Edit at the top of the tool bar then select Layers.You’ll find it in the Silhouette Design Store. In my sample, I’m using Design ID #120815, Library Pocket & Card by Felicity Jane. You will find the layering tool in the Designer and Business Editions of Silhouette Studio®.Īn easy way to understand the layers pane is to open a design that you have purchased and experiment. Each design element the background image, cut lines, score lines, text, embellishments and so on each have their own layer.Įach layer can be edited and moved independently of the other layers, giving you a ton of freedom as you design and/or edit designs. You can think of layers in Silhouette Studio® like the layers of a pizza. Each element of the pizza the dough, sauce, cheese, pepperoni, sausage, onion, and peppers is its own “layer”. Think of pizza. There are lots of layers on a pizza that all work together to create a delicious food. Layers are simply design elements built on individual, editable planes. The layers pane is also wonderful for those who like to customize purchased designs. If you have any interest in designing your own files, the layers panel will be an invaluable tool for you. The layers pane is a great tool for intermediate to advanced Silhouette users who own the Designer and Business editions of Silhouette Studio®.
