Layering UI elements

You can layer UI elements as if they were pieces of paper on the board. To do so, you select the UI elements you want to layer and select one of four layering commands available via the right-click menu or selection toolbar: Bring to Front, Bring Forward, Send Backward, and Send to Back. Keyboard shortcuts are also available.
