Showing and hiding layers

There are times when you will want to show/hide layers, such as to reduce visual distraction when working on a specific area of your composition; to see how one variation of a design looks compared to another; to place something else in the scene, or to remove an element.

You can show/hide layers from the Layer Editor

  • To hide a layer, tap the layer's  icon. It changes to , indicating the layer is hidden.
  • To show a layer, tap the layer's  icon. It changes to , indicating the layer is now visible.

In Sketchbook Pro for desktop, you can also show and hide a layer from the layer's marking menu .
