The Interface

• Learn Interface Basics
  Listen and watch as Arnie orients you to the menu bar, Insert window (which looks a lot like a toolbar), and Property inspector. Also, learn about panels accessed via the Window menu, such as the Files panel and the CSS Styles panel.
• Meet the Property Inspector
  Explore various modes of the Property inspector by hovering over a Property inspector element to see a pop-up message about how to use it.

  Control the appearance of a layer—or even if it appears at all.
• Set the Z-Index
  Modify a layer's Z-Index, that is, its position in the stacking order of the layers on a page.
• Put Content in a Layer
  Add text and graphics to a layer.
