Setting Layer Keys for Characters

In the Changing the Layer Order - Body Parts and Facial Features section, you are allowed to set the initial layer order for body parts. However, the layer order is not always fixed throughout the whole project. You may set layer keys in different time frames by moving the body parts up or down.

1. Select a character whose leg swings. With the initial layer order; the right leg will always be behind the left leg.
   
2. Go to the time frame before the character crossed legs.
3. Switch to the Layer tab in the Scene Manager.
   
4. Use the Move to Top, Move Up, Move Down and Move to Bottom buttons to re-arrange the layer order of the legs. A layer key will automatically be added.
   
5. Go to another time frame where you need the layer order to be reset.
6. Click the Release Key button to remove the effect of the key. The initial layer order will now be retrieved.
   
7. Play the project to see the result.
