Specify where to add new objects in the stacking order

Illustrator stacks successively drawn objects, beginning with the first object drawn. How objects are stacked determines how they display when they overlap. You can change the stacking order (also called the painting order) of objects in your artwork at any time using either the Layers panel or Object > Arrange commands.

In the Layers panel, do either of the following:

Click the name of the object above which you want to add the new object.
To add the new object to the top of a layer or group, click the layer or group name.

Alt+Ctrl‑click (Windows) or Option+Command‑click (Mac OS) anywhere in the layer list, and type the name or number of the layer you want to select. (For example, you can type 30 to go to layer 30.)
