Changing the order of objects in projects
Follow this procedure to change the stack order of the photos and other objects in a project. The stack order affects how overlapping objects display in a project. If you place text on a photo, the text must be higher in the stack order, or it will be hidden by the photo.
To change the order of objects in a project:
1 Select the object in your project that you want to bring forward or move back.
Note: You can only change the order of objects in a PhotoSuite project file (.dmsp).
2 To rearrange the objects manually, in the Objects pane, click the object you want to move, and drag it to the new location.
Tip: To display the Objects pane, click the down-arrow on the right of the Canvas Toolbar.
3 To move an object forward or backward in the object order, on the Canvas Toolbar, click the Bring Forward or Send Backward button.
