Working with layers

If you are drawing something simple, you don’t really need to make use of

layers—you can do all your work on the single layer that every new document

has. However, if you’re creating something a little more tricky then layers can be

a vital aid in separating objects into independent sets. You can think of layers as

transparent sheets of paper upon which you can draw your objects.

Layers are useful when you're working on a complex design where it makes

sense to separate one cluster of objects from another. The whole drawing is

produced by piling up the layers and viewing all of the objects on all of the

layers; you can choose which layer you are editing and thus make changes

without fear of modifying anything on another layer. In essence, by building up

your drawing from multiple layers you make it much easier to edit.
