4. Click New Layer. The New Layer dialog box appears.

A default name comprised of the word Layer prefixed to the layer
number appears. The layer number does not necessarily match the
index number; it is simply the next unused integer in the list.

A new layer is added to the end of the collection. Its index is one
higher than the previous high index number. All symbols added to this
layer are displayed over symbols on lower indexed layers.

5. Click OK to return to the Layers dialog box.

6. Select the appropriate check boxes:

Visible

Makes the elements in the layer visible in Run mode. New layers are
visible by default.

Active

Accepts all new symbols as you add them to the display. Inactive

prevents symbols from being added automatically. New layers are

Active by default.

Locked

Prevents you from adding symbols to a layer. Existing symbols on
locked layers cannot be cut, copied, pasted, deleted, or moved. New

layers are not locked by default.

7. Click OK.
