Layer Order and Depth Order
When compositing in 2D, the Layers tab shows the layer order, which determines which
objects appear on top of other objects. Objects that are higher up in the Layers tab appear
on top of objects lower than them in the Layers tab.
Important:
The children of 2D groups are always composited in layer order.
