Step 2īy default, in a New Document, you'll see two layers: Layer 1 and Background Color. To reveal your Layers, tap on the Layers Icon in the upper right-hand corner of your work area. The two layers could then be moved and manipulated independently-as opposed to if they were one, dependent work in a shared space.
