Working with layers 333

Using layers with illustrations

Using layers is invaluable when you work with illustrations. The

following table provides examples.

To Do the follo wing

Make changes easier Create individual components on

separate layers to make them easier

to edit. For example, for an

illustration of a car speeding down a

highway in the mountains, create

the car, the driver, the highway, and

the mountains on separate layers.

For more information, see “Creating

layers” on page 338.

Move multiple layers together on the

image canvas

Link or group layers that need to

move together. For example, link the

car and the driver in the previous

example so that when you move the

car, the driver moves with it.

For more information, see “Linking

layers” on page 349.

Edit graphical elements Create vector objects on vector layers

for objects that you need to fine-

tune or edit.

For more information, see “Creating

layers” on page 338.
