View the arrangement of image layers

To view image layers for the active canvas plane

Choose Windows > Editors > Canvas Layer Editor to open the Canvas Layer Editor window.

The image layers for the active canvas plane are displayed.

To view image layers for another canvas plane

Do one of the following:

• Select the canvas plane from the lister at the top of the Canvas Layer Editor.
• Select the canvas plane from the lister at the top of the Paint window.
• Choose Windows > Editors > Construction Plane Editor and click the canvas name.

That canvas automatically becomes the active canvas and its layers are displayed in the Canvas Layer Editor window.

I don’t see any layers in the Canvas Layer Editor

You may not have any canvas in your scene. See Create a canvas plane for how to create new canvases.

To view the layer thumbnails

The layer thumbnails are turned off by default, to provide more space for the layer names. To see the thumbnails:

1. Choose Preferences > General Preferences.
2. In the Paint section, put a check mark in Show thumbnails in Canvas Layer Editor.
