Every Scrapbook page is made up of layers that can be shown or hidden at any time. The order of these layers are:  Page Background Layer: The page background can be set using Background Settings to display an image, display a template of a grid or horizontal lines, and/or be set to a specific background color. The page background cannot be modified by the annotation tools.  Annotation Layers: The annotation layers are transparent layers that are stacked on top of the page background layer. These layers contain Scrapbook elements. Any Scrapbook page can have multiple annotation layers. When you add a new layer, it is stacked on top of the existing layers. This means that annotations are displayed with the latest layer shown at the top. The three types of annotation layers that are found in each Scrapbook page are: o Default Layer: The default annotation layer in the Scrapbook page. This layer always exists for any Scrapbook page and cannot be deleted. o User Layers 1 - 18: Up to 18 additional layers can be added to a Scrapbook page. The default layer and the user layers are always shared to remote participants during a shared meeting. o Private Layer: The top-most layer is the private layer. The private layer is shown only on the local computer and is never shared through a shared meeting. The purpose of the private layer is to give the local user a private workspace within the Scrapbook session. Note: Private layers are hidden when a shared meeting is synchronized. All annotation layers can be locked and/or shown/hidden. How to Use Layers Turn on layers by choosing Layers from the View Menu. This opens the Layers dialog box that lets you select, add, delete and move layers of a Scrapbook page.

Layers
The following section describes
Layers
and how to use them in your Scrapbook meeting.
What are Layers?
How to Use Layers
What are Layers?
Every Scrapbook page is made up of layers that can be shown or hidden at any time. The
order of these layers are:
Page Background Layer
: The page background can be set using
Background Settings
to display an image, display a template of a grid or horizontal lines, and/or be set to a
specific background color. The page background cannot be modified by the annotation
tools.
Annotation Layers:
The annotation layers are transparent layers that are stacked on
top of the page background layer. These layers contain
Scrapbook elements.
Any Scrapbook page can have multiple annotation layers. When you add a new layer, it is
stacked on top of the existing layers. This means that annotations are displayed with the
latest layer shown at the top.
The three types of annotation layers that are found in each Scrapbook page are:
o
Default Layer
: The default annotation layer in the Scrapbook page. This layer
always exists for any Scrapbook page and cannot be deleted.
o
User Layers 1 - 18
: Up to 18 additional layers can be added to a Scrapbook
page. The default layer and the user layers are always shared to remote
participants during a shared meeting.
o
Private Layer
: The top-most layer is the private layer. The private layer is shown
only on the local computer and is never shared through a shared meeting. The
purpose of the private layer is to give the local user a private workspace within
the Scrapbook session.
Note:
Private layers are hidden when a shared meeting is
synchronized.
All annotation layers can be locked and/or shown/hidden.
How to Use Layers
Turn on layers by choosing Layers from the
View Menu
. This opens the Layers dialog box
that lets you select, add, delete and move layers of a Scrapbook page.
Layers Title Bar
The Layers dialog title bar indicates which Scrapbook page you are currently working in.
