Editing Objects ❚❘❘ You can change the order of objects, moving them backward or forward one level at a time, or moving them directly to the front or to the back of the image. Changing order of objects in the stack changes how objects appear in the viewport. Note: You can also change the position of objects by dragging them up or down in the Workspace panel or Timeline list. For more information, see "Changing the Order of Objects or Layers" in Chapter 12, "Creating Animations''. Stacking and Selections Selections act on objects above them in the stacking order until another selection is encountered. By default, the combination mode is Replace (=). If you create a selection on top of a selection, the new selection becomes the active selection. Newly created effect operators only apply to the active selection. In the following example, the Brightness/ Contrast effect applies only to the Rectangle Selection whereas the Mosaic effect applies only to the Ellipse Selection. To change the order of overlapping objects: 1. Select the object whose stacking order you want to change. 2. From the Object menu, choose one of the following. Choose To Bring to Front Move the object in front of all the other objects in the operator. In the Timeline list, the object moves to the top of the list. Bring Forward Move the object forward one level. In the Timeline list, the object moves up one position. Send to Back Move the object all the way behind the other objects in the operator. In the Timeline list, the object moves to the end of the list. Send Backward Move the object back one level. In the Timeline list, the object moves down one position. You can still add a filter to the original selection. To do this, add the filter to the top of the stack, then drag it down to the appropriate position above the first selection. 409
