Show/Hide Layers allows you to view multiple Layers at once.

NOTE: Show/Hide Layers is an Industry Pro feature.

Start by tapping the Layers icon:
You'll see all the Layers in the document, and the ones that have the closed-eye icon are hidden and those with the open-eye icon are shown:


Touch or click a layer with the closed-eye icon to make it visible; touch or click a layer with the open-eye icon to hide it.

To show or hide all layers, touch or click the three-dot menu and make your choice:



The layer with the pencil icon is the active layer; it's the only layer that can be edited.


To make a different layer active, touch or click it and then touch or click the script page.

Annotations in the active layer are fully colored, while annotations in the non-active layers are faded a little. In this screenshot, the Directing layer is the active layer.


For information on changing the opacity of the non-active layers, see this article.
