Page and layer controls

Canvas features additional page and layer controls at the bottom of the screen that can be used in addition to the Document Layout palette.

To add pages:

  1. Click the New page icon.
  2. In the Insert dialog box, enter the number of pages (sheets or slides) and indicate the placement; i.e., before or after a certain page.

To add layers to a page:

Click the New layer icon.

Another layer is added automatically to that page.

To toggle between pages:

Open the Page menu and select the page that you want to view. You can also use the Page arrows to the left of the Page menu.

To toggle between layers:

Use the Layer controls located to the right of the page & layer controls. If your document contains multiple layers, these controls scroll through the various layers.
