As objects are drawn, the program keeps track of their stacking order within the design layer. The first object created is at the back of the stack, and the most recent object created is at the front of the stack.
The send commands change the stacking order of objects within a layer. Objects can be sent forward to be in front of an overlapping object or sent backward to be behind an overlapping object. Also, objects can be sent all the way to the front or back of the stack in one step.
To change the stacking order of an object:
1. Select the object to restack.
2.Select the command, and then select the send method to use.
